Kepler has proven there are more planets than stars in our galaxy — and knowing that revolutionizes our scientific understanding of our place in the cosmos.

How long will it take to go to Kepler?

Kepler-452 is about 1,800 light years away, which means it currently would take a spacecraft about 30m years to travel there. At least one planet is orbiting the star: it’s called Kepler-452b, and astronomers have wondered whether it could be home to alien life.

Where is the Kepler now?

“Kepler is currently trailing the Earth by about 94 million miles, and will remain the same distance from the Earth for the foreseeable future,” Charlie Sobeck, project system engineer at NASA’s Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California, said during a teleconference with reporters yesterday.

What replaced the Kepler space telescope?

Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite
KOI-5Ab came back into the spotlight thanks to Kepler’s successor, NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), which launched in 2018. TESS also spotted a signal in the KOI-5 system, generated by a potential planet with an orbital period of five Earth days.

Can you live on Kepler 452b?

It is the first potentially rocky super-Earth planet discovered orbiting within the habitable zone of a star very similar to the Sun. However, it is not known yet if it is completely habitable, as it is receiving slightly more energy than Earth is, and could possibly be subjected to a runaway greenhouse effect.
