Many new planets discovered by Hubble telescope in the past few years, but the new telescope launched only last year – Kepler observatory – found its first five new planets outside of our solar system.

NASA scientists are hoping that Kepler observatory can find Earth-like planets in our galaxy.

The five new planets, however, have very high temperature which would make it impossible for humans to live there. The scientists estimate the temperature to be around 1,200 to 1,650 degrees Celsius, hotter than molten lava.

In terms of the size, some of them are similar to Neptune and others similar to Jupiter, the largest in the Solar System. The scientist called them Kepler 4b, 5b, 6b, 7b and 8b.

“These observations contribute to our understanding of how planetary systems form and evolve from the gas and dust disks that give rise to both the stars and their planets,’ said Kepler’s principal investigator William Borucki.

The scientists also found many other “objects” that they are not sure what they are yet, and still analyzing and investigating their properties.
