NASA has called a sudden press conference ……which always gets me pretty excited
that today will be the day…..aliens…..aliens?
Hello and welcome back to inform Overload…..I am Rebecca Felgate, Charlotte isn’t here
today so she can’t hug an alien, but I can sing my aliens song!
I’ll save it for the end of this episode though, just so the people who are here for
the news and not my singing can ….you know….hear it!
Also, if you can do me a favour and hit that like button while you are here and of course
leave us an alien based comment!
Okay!
NASA What you got!
Nasa has called a huge press conference for Thursday where they are expected to announce
a major breakthrough.
It is thought the news comes from their Kepler space telescope, which is used to investigate
potential earth-like planets in our galaxy that can sustain life.
So, this would basically mean land and water planets with a breathable atmosphere.
These planets are often referred to as exo planets, which means they orbit other stars.
Kepker completed its main mission in 2012 but started its K2 mission two years later
to search for more hospitable planets.
Astronomers are now predicting that each star in the milkyway could have its own earth like
planet.
Now, we don’t know exactly what will be said in the conference yet, but we do know
that the results of the Kepler space mission research have been made a lot easier to determine
thanks to google.
There has been so much information, so much data coming from Kepler, that humans analysts
have been struggling to keep up.
Google has deployed Artificial Intelligence to help analyse the data quicker.
So…robots…and aliens..oh my!
Leading the conference will be a senior Google software engineer, Nasa’s head of Astrophysics
and two scientists.
Something in my gut tells me this isn’t going to be the day we are waiting for in
terms of the big alien life announcement, but it could be a big day in the step towards
finding another planet we could potentially live on.
I guess we had all better stay tuned until tomorrow!
I for one am very excited.
There is nothing cooler or more important than space!
Okay, let’s read a few comments from mine and Charlotte’s collaboration video yesterday
about Mad Mike Hughes who thinks the earth is flat and wants to jump out of a rocket
to prove it….
Because…logic.
Aquamsheep 24 said : Doubt that thing can go into the stratosphere, there's not enough
propulsion?…..
yes, aquamsheep….that is one of a plethora of issues.
Covfefe laqueefa said y’all queens should do more videos together.
WELL YA.
But I want to read my favourite comment exchange of them all…..
Keerto Ji said please provide your scientific proof the earth is a ball girls, if you know
it is a ball you must have some sort of proof.....?
and heck,I didn’t even need to reply as Panikos of Grays said ... you can watch the
stars rotating at night, you can buy a cheap telescope and see the international space
station with your own eyes, see different stars in different hemispheres, you can look
at the satellite dishes on your house and investigate how they work, you can check times
for journeys between countries that are far south, if the world was flat those countries
can’t be close but are spread around the rim…just by looking at flight times you
can see that.
WELL THANKS Panikos of Grays.
Research…science…provable physics.
Some of my favourites…..
so…I guess it is time for the aliens song and then we’re outaaaa here!
ALIENS ALIENS ALIENS.
Thanks guys, make sure you leave a comment and a thumbs up!
