Strange Mini Solar System Found
starexplorer writes "In 1990, Penn State's Alex Wolszczan found the first exoplanets. But he never got much credit from mainstream researchers, because his planets (3
of them, roughly Earth-sized) orbit pulsars and hold no chance for harboring life. Now he's found a 4th object on the outskirts of the system, SPACE.com is reporting. Call it a planet, call it an asteroid, Wolszczan says, but call the setup a dark, eerie twin of the inner half of our solar system. Also in the same story, news of a brown dwarf just 15 times the mass of Jupiter that has a planet-making disk of stuff around it. Together, more problems for astronomers, who still don't have a basic
definition for the word planet or a firm idea of what separates planets from stars."
obviously you didn't get the sarcasm, I forgot to add the tags for you...
If you knew how to speak/write English, then you would know that "it's" is a contraction for "it is" (see my previous post), so how does "We need it is light" sound like correct grammar to you ?
Not being able to edit posts was part of my point too, clearly the post I was replying to was idiotic...I must say the same to you as well as my response obvious went far above your head. english grammar impaired or just don't believe me?
Yes AC, very good. Do you know what hexadecimal is? Do you use vi or notepad? I know these are tough concepts, for you and spuzzzzzzz alike... ;)
