Will there be another planet like earth....we'll just have to wait and see.!
A new mission prepares to launch corot....Corot will be the first spacecraft capable of detecting rocky planets just a few times bigger than Earth that are orbiting neighbouring stars. This will also be able to tell us a lot of different things about the stars themselves like their age..etc. This piece of technology is due to launch from the French Space Agency on the 26 or 27 of December.
Thats great...It would be really amazing if they found a planet like earth.. in a few years maybe we could go there on holiday!! No just joking..but maybe we never know.. Ha??
