Kepler Space Telescope Announcement Set


NASA is expected to make an announcement Thursday on the progress of its Kepler spacecraft, which has been staring at one patch of space for evidence of other worlds including the "discovery of an intriguing planetary system," reports Space.com.

In the video above, Kepler co-investigator Dimitar Sasselov preempted the NASA announcement that the exoplanet-hunting Kepler Space Telescope has discovered about 140 candidate worlds orbiting other stars that are "like Earth." More from ABC News and Discovery News.
