Man, I’ve always had an interest in astronomy, and this is very exciting…

Apparently, according to this article on CNN.com:

http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/space/08/08/space.kepler.discovery/index.html

The new Kepler Telescope has spotted a planet out there that’s pointed at a star (sun) and the planet’s hot side is 4000 degrees (and it glows!)   That’s a pretty amazing find since the new telescope hasn’t even started its official operation yet!

Can’t wait to see what’s discovered!
