I wish to know the approximate surface temperature of Fomalhaut b.

[Anonymous No.2795077]

it looks to me like the planet is out of orbit
someone to confirm this?
or is it due to the star moving fast in horizontal direction?

[Stoned !!YkH35jQENw0 No.2795124]

Did you know that Tres-4 is the largest extrasolar planet discovered? The planet has a diameter 1.7 times the diameter of Jupiter. Also, it is a gas giant as the name "Hot Jupiter" would imply.

i think the only thing they've deducted from it is it's mass? I'm not sure. Anyone confirm this I'm curious as well.

[Stoned !!YkH35jQENw0 No.2795160]

Tbh, I think Gliese581g is for more interesting than Tres-4 or Fomalhaut b. This planet is within its star's fucking habitable zone. Seriously. Here is an image of the Gliese system.

Inuradaes is not very bright. He also follows the Zeitgeist Movement bullshit and other irrational crap, while derailing any discussion concerning intelligent topics. I think he should get banned. Oh, and he's underage - this implies a ban.

No. A resource-based economy =/= Venus Project/Zeitgeist Movement. I have said many times that I think the way they think it will unfold is naive.

LOL!

"Hai thar.
I'm uh, Inurdaes. You can call me Eddy. I heard about this from my friend Jkid and he was all like, 'You should liek totally go here it is de beeeeest.' SO! I'm here to... be here.
I'm currently residing in Adelaide, Australia, and I'm 15. I know computer shit, and have a self-built computer that I mainly use for gaming. I also have an Xbox 360 but ANY new game here is going to cost $100 and up. So rather than get fornicated rather furiously in my pudendum by a money-hungry porcupine, I decided to PC GAEM and buy my games off Steam. I also rather like doing digital drawings on Photoshop.

Not sure what else to say here, but yeah."

What a stupid person - he's stupid even for an angsty 15 year old.

I didn't know Inurdaes was 15. I always thought he was about 12. He probably lied in the Social Revolution forum thread.

>There also exist planets that orbit brown dwarfs and free floating planets that orbit the galaxy directly just as the stars do - it is unclear if either type should be labeled as a "planet"

so now planets can orbit galaxies. interesting. no anon...looks like it's orbiting a galaxy.

[Anonymous No.2795435]

>On 2 February 2011, the Kepler team announced the results of analysis of the data taken between 2 May and 16 September 2009. They found 1235 planetary candidates circling 997 host stars. (The numbers that follow assume the candidates are really planets, though the official papers call them only candidates. Independent analysis indicates that at least 90% of them are real planets and not false positives. 68 planets were approximately Earth-size, 288 super-Earth-size, 662 Neptune-size, 165 Jupiter-size, and 19 up to twice the size of Jupiter. 54 planets were within the habitable zone, including 5 less than twice the size of the Earth. In contrast to previous work, roughly 74% of the planets are smaller than Neptune, most likely as a result of previous work finding large planets more easily than smaller ones. The observed planet count versus size increases to a peak at two to three times Earth-size and then declines inversely proportional to area of the planet. Kepler's current best estimate, after accounting for currently known biases: 6% of stars host Earth-size candidates, 7% host super-Earth-size candidates, 17% host Neptune-size candidates, and 4% host Jupiter-size candidates. Multi-planet systems are common; 17% of the host stars have multi-candidate systems, and 33.9% of all the planets are in multiple planet systems.

On top of that, there were some extrapolations done to the total amount of planets in our galaxy.

>How's this for an astronomical estimate? There are at least 50 billion exoplanets in our galaxy. What's more, astronomers estimate that 500 million of these alien worlds are probably sitting inside the habitable zones of their parent stars.

that...is awesome

[Anonymous No.2795469]

check this out:

Kepler Mission data has recently been used for the Zooniverse project "planethunters.org", which allows volunteers to look for transit events in the light curves to identify planets that the computer algorithms might miss. Currently, users may have found ninety candidates that were previously unrecognized by the Kepler Mission team. The team has plans to publicly credit amateurs who spot such planets.

I'd like to help out. I wonder if I need a powerful telescope.
