MOFFETT FIELD, Calif. -- NASA will hold a media teleconference Thursday, Aug. 26, 2010, at 10 a.m. PDT to discuss the Kepler spacecraft's most current discovery about an interesting planetary system. Kepler, an area observatory, tries to find the data signatures of planets by gauging small reduces in the brightness of stars when planets cross in front of, or transit them. In June, objective experts announced the objective has determined even more than 700 planet prospects, consisting of 5 candidate systems that appear to have even more than one transiting planet. Panelists are:. - Jon Morse, director, Science Mission Directorate Astrophysics Division, NASA Headquarters, Washington. - William Borucki, Kepler Mission science principal detective, NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif. - Matthew Holman, associate director, Theoretical Astrophysics Division, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, Mass. - Alycia Weinberger, astronomer, Department of Terrestrial Magnetism, Carnegie Institution of Washington, Washington.
