The sensational discovery of a new all-Italian small planet which takes only 60 hours to make the rotation around its star is destined to open scenarios very comforting. It ‘clear that the new HD219134b , as it was code-named planet discovered thanks to the observations of the Galileo project, it can not be defined at all as a twin planet of Earth view and given its proximity to star around which makes its rotation.
However, as highlighted Giampaolo Piotto, professor at the University of Padua who performed and certified this important astronomical detection, detection of the new planet HD219134b represents a further step towards the discovery of the double planet earth that is increasingly within the reach of the telescopes of the greatest centers research in the world.
Up there, sooner or later, you can find some planet that has the same characteristics of the earth. The means to accomplish this important step, primarily technological, clearly there are.
In the meantime, the discovery of the planet HD219134b is still very important. The surface of this mass of rock that moves in space is very glowing and this feature prevents any form of life, the most basic reeds. On this point Giusi Micela , at the top INAF Palermo Astronomical Observatory, has been very clear for launch no false illusions to all lovers of space.
The discovery made within the Galileo program It was possible thanks to a very careful and profound observation of the constellation Cassiopeia. Impressive distances with the planet HD219134b that is our Earth 21 light years and clearly can not be studied except with very powerful mechanism. One element that makes the new planet close to our land is the alignment of their respective orbits. A little bit to think they have found the so called double planet. But research continues and the space is huge.
