discovery of Planet X / Nibiru in the last 24 hours. Even the CBS evening

Scientists Discern Glow of Alien Planets for the First Time

Astronomers said today that they had seen the glow of alien planets for the

Using the Spitzer Space Telescope and careful timing, two different teams
studying two different planets were able to distinguish the planets' infrared
radiation - or heat glow - from the overwhelming glare of their parent stars.

发帖数: 27 | 19 I guess they kind of overclaimed their finding. Since they haven't directly
seen the planet, the temperature they estimated for the planet is probably
based on the luminosity of the star and the planet's distance to the star.
Thus this 0-40 degree C is not necessarily the surface temperature of that
planet. If it had a thick "green house" atmoshpere earlier in its history,
then all the water (if there was any) would have been long gone ...just like

the most Earth-like planet yet outside our solar system, with balmy temperat

They have not directly seen the planet, orbiting a red dwarf star called Gli
