NASA TESS Observatory Will Hunt For Alien Life On "Super-Earth" Exoplanets

An anonymous reader writes "Kepler may be down, but now NASA has another planet-hunting tool in mind. The space agency is preparing the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) observatory in order to follow in Kepler's footsteps. NASA has been searching for alien planets for several years now. Learning about strange exoplanets such as enormous, hot 'Jupiters' and 'rogue planets' that actually cruise through space without a parent star certainly adds to the body of research concerning our universe. Yet what scientists are really interested in are the Earth-like planets that may hold the potential for life."

It has come to my attention that women might be porsting on your web-site, yet you have not taken any measures to protect women from blasphimmy on your web-site, which makes God and Billy upset, and also makes FRED the minion of SATAN jappy, and you shoud stop and carefully consider the horrible effects of your actions!
