I’ve been seeing reports of the Earth-like planets found by Kepler and perhaps you have too.<\/p>\n

The following press release was issued form the Ames Research Center:<\/p>\n

\n

The following NASA statement was sent to Dr. S. Pete Worden, Director, NASA Ames Research Center from the Kepler Science Council on Aug. 2, 2010.<\/p>\n

“Recently there have been reports to the effect that Kepler has discovered many Earth-like planets. This is not the case. Analysis of the current Kepler data does not support the assertion that Kepler has found any Earth-like planets.<\/p>\n

Kepler is producing excellent results and is on a path to achieving all its mission requirements and actually determining the frequency of Earth-size planets, especially in habitable zones. We will announce our results when they become available and are confirmed.”<\/p>\n

Signed,<\/p>\n

Edward W. Dunham, Kepler Science Team Lead
