Nasa has announced that they have just launched a spacecraft called, Kepler into space on March 6th, 2009.  They launched it from Cocoa Beach, FL.  The rocket was named after a German 17th century astrophysicist.  Keler’s mission will last about 3 1/2 years and will cost $600 million.  The mission is to find earth like planets in the Milky Way galaxy.  Planets that are floating around stars and may have water on them which could mean life.

I wrote this article while back talking about how they think thewre are hundereds of planets close by that could be like earth.  Perhaps Kepler may be able to uncover the possible secrets in this area,  The article says that scientists expect to have an answer by 2020.  Well, Kepler’s mission is only 3 1/2 years so it would be awesome if we had an answer by 2012 1/2.

Well, the title of this post is "Do YOU Think There Are Really Aliens Out There."  I what to know what you think about this subject.  I know many people think that there is no way there can be other intelligent life forms out there because of religious reasons and others.  Other people think there are aliens for sure.  While even others think they were abducted by aliens before!  Regardless of your reason I would like to know what you think.

So do you think that in all of that space out there we are simply all alone?  Or do you think there are many worlds just like ours?  I look forward to discussing this with you.
