What does in mean that 32 new planets found outside our solar system?
You might like to think this, but these planets are HUGE. There is NO way they would be able to find planets as small as ours from these distances. Astronomers only can find these HUGE planets because they shake their parent-stars enough as they rotate around them for them here on earth to notice the movement of the planet’s sun. *shug* They don’t have life on them because they are SO close to their suns too. This proximity also is what allows them to shake their suns so violently to allow the astronomers to see their suns moving. Until these “discoveries” we only could “guess” that there were other worlds out there. Now, that they have this evidence, they still are “guessing,” however. Why are there no terrestrial planets in OUR solar system that are the same size as these newly discovered giants? Sure, we have BIG planets, but ALL of them are gas giants.
