NASA is expected to make an announcement Thursday on the progress of its Kepler spacecraft, which has been staring at one patch of space for evidence of other worlds.
The Kepler space observatory hunts for Earth-like planets around other stars. In June, mission scientists announced it had found over 700 candidates, including five systems that appear to have more than one transiting planet.
NASA launched the $600 million spacecraft in March 2009. It is currently staring at a patch of the Milky Way that contains over 156,000 stars – a star field in the constellations Cygnus and Lyra.
Astronomers have been using the data from Kepler to determine whether orbiting planets are responsible for the variation in brightness of several hundred stars.
Follow-up observations are necessary to distinguish between actual planets and false alarms such as binary stars, which are two stars that orbit each other.

The Divine Plan is to restore Planet Earth to its original state and this will be done with the help from beings of Higher Dimensions who are here NOW...so Nasa as usual is wasting time and money looking for other Planets but should and we all should CONCENTRATE ON PLANET EARTH.
As Lord Adama says HEAVEN IS A PLACE YOU CAN CREATE ON EARTH.
