NASA held a Kepler briefing today on April 18, 2013 at 11 a.m. PST. It was broadcast live on NASA Television and on UStream. The agency also hosted a moderated Web chat with Kepler Deputy Project Scientist Nick Gautier of NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab. During the briefing, people submitted questions to the Kepler scientists via Twitter with the hashtag #AskNASA.
Kepler launched in March 2009 and was NASA's first mission capable of finding Earth-size and smaller planets encircling other stars within the Milky Way galaxy. The space telescope has specifically been looking for planets within a certain distance of a star that would allow for a surface temperature where liquid water could exist.
