Mental News - Earth Twin Called Kepler 22b

Scientists have confirmed the existence of an Earth-like planet orbiting a star similar to the sun 600 light years away. Kepler-22b is the planet most akin to our own ever discovered and has a radius that is roughly 2.4 times that of Earth. The planet is positioned in the "habitable zone" of a star - in a 290-day orbit - which means water could exist on its surface. If the atmosphere of Kepler-22b is similar to that of Earth, its temperature would be about 22C.

Scientists do not yet know if Kepler-22b is predominantly made up of rock, liquid or gas, but say its discovery is a step closer to finding Earth-like planets. "This is a major milestone on the road to finding Earth's twin," said Douglas Hudgins, Kepler program scientist at Nasa headquarters in Washington. "Kepler's results continue to demonstrate the importance of NASA's science missions, which aim to answer some of the biggest questions about our place in the universe."

Nasa's Kepler mission has discovered more than 1,000 new planet candidates, ten of which are near Earth-size and orbit in the habitable zone of their host star. These discoveries need to be observed further to determine if they are actual planets. Natalie Batalha, Kepler deputy science team lead at San Jose State University in California, said: "The tremendous growth in the number of Earth-size candidates tells us that we're honing in on the planets Kepler was designed to detect: those that are not only Earth-size, but also are potentially habitable. The more data we collect, the keener our eye for finding the smallest planets out at longer orbital periods."

The Kepler telescope discovers planet candidates by measuring dips in the brightness of more than 150,000 stars, which is seen as an indication of a planet transiting in front of a host star. It requires at least three transits to verify a candidate as a planet. Fortune smiled upon us with the detection of this planet," said William Borucki, who led the team that discovered Kepler-22b. "The first transit was captured just three days after we declared the spacecraft operationally ready. We witnessed the defining third transit over the 2010 holiday season."

24: The Movie Confirmed

The big screen version of 24 is set to begin filming in April 2012, it has been confirmed. A movie version of the Fox's long-running action drama has been in development since the end of the eighth and final season last year. Now, Die Hard 4 screenwriter Mark Bomback is said to be completing the latest script draft by the end of the year.

The movie will go into production in the spring to coincide with star Kiefer Sutherland's next available dates, according to Deadline. The film will once again see Sutherland reprise his role as counter-terrorist agent Jack Bauer. Fox are apparently looking at five directors under the leadership of producer Brian Grazer, who recently stepped in as producer of next year’s Oscars following the departure of Brett Ratner.

Speculation has been rife over what form a 24 movie will take, since the television show's conceit was that each series took place in a real time over a 24-hour period. Sutherland himself said recently: "Trying to condense that into a two-hour film version has been a real shift in gear for us. We were originally trying to make it too big and put too much into it - but once we relaxed, we found out how to tell that story. So yes we definitely do plan on making the film."

Lady GaGa is reportedly planning a record-breaking world tour. The singer wants to break U2's record for the highest grossing and most attended tour of all time with a two-year, 450-date jaunt across the globe. Gaga and her team hope to better previous tours from the likes of Michael Jackson and The Rolling Stones, according to The Sun.

A source said: "The Haus Of Gaga is taking things up a gear. "She is planning to kick things off in Asia and India next year and go on a gruelling world tour. "As is always the case with Gaga, the plans came to her in her sleep. She has a target of 450 dates. It has never been done before, but she doesn't think that's a reason not to try."

GaGa has started work on the show's design with the team behind Take That's 'Circus' and 'Progress Live' tours. Her recent 'Monster Ball Tour' became the highest-grossing tour by a debut headlining artist. It was recently confirmed that GaGa has started work on her new album, the follow-up to Born This Way.
