Kepler Mission Manager Update
Because my last update, the Kepler team announced the discovery of 11 new planetary systems with 26 even more planets. These discoveries almost double the number of validated Kepler planets and triple the number of stars understood to have even more than one planet that transits. The team also announced Kepler had found 2 new circumbinary planets. The discovery of the Kepler-34 and Kepler-35 systems develops that double-star globes are not unusual. This brings Kepler's verified planet count to 61. Throughout January, some team members went to the 219th meeting of the American Astronomical Society (AAS) in Austin, TX. There were 28 talks and 29 posters presented at the AAS directly related to Kepler data. We were rather pleased and amazed that these discussions were shared across 29 different scientific sessions-- including cosmology! -- over the course of the five-day meeting.
