NASA Discovers 5 New Earth-Like Planets! Maybe...



NASA's Kepler observatory had discovered five Earth-like planets that could support life.
The new planets were located using theHigh Accuracy Radial Velocity Planet Searcher (HARPS) at the European Southern Observatory‘s (ESO) La Silla Observatory in Chile.

These planets will be among the best targets for future space telescopes to look for signs of life in the planet’s atmosphere by looking for chemical signatures such as oxygen.
