Planet Kepler-452b, An older bigger cousin of the Earth!

  The report about Kepler-452b                     NDK Astronomy & research presents


What is Kepler-452b?

Kepler-452b is a super-Earth exoplanet orbiting within the inner edge of the habitable zone of the Sun-like star Kepler-452, and is the only planet in the system discovered by Kepler. It is located about 1,402 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Cygnus.  

What is special about Kepler-452b, can life exist on it? 

Kepler-452b has a probable mass five times that of Earth, and its surface gravity is nearly twice as Earth's, though calculations of mass for exoplanets are only rough estimates. If it is a terrestrial planet, it is most likely a super-Earth with many active volcanoes due to its higher mass and density. A 2015 review concluded that the exoplanets Kepler-62f, Kepler-186f and Kepler-442b were likely the best candidates for being potentially habitable. We don't know whether life exists on Kepler-452b, but we do know that it has some things in common with the Earth. For instance, Kepler-452b takes 385 Earth days to complete its orbit around its star, which is only a bit longer than one Earth year. However it is said that it can have oxygen in the planet.  


An Important thing

Scientists say that microorganisms can be living in this planet. Its still not confirmed but its near to be. That means they are extra terrestrial life or alians, humans been looking for dozens of years. 


Extra & Quick scientific facts.  

Distance to Earth: 1,402 light years
Gravity: 18.63 m/s²
Radius: 9,556.5 km
Discovered by: Kepler Science Team
Alternative names: KOI-7016.01
Coordinates : RA 19h 44m 1s | Dec +44° 16′ 39″

A bit from the NDK

It is said that this planet could save humanity from the end of the world because for now scientists say that this planet could host life. That depends weather its already hosted by unknown species of life. Maybe this planet is the key secret to the curiosity of humans from a long long time ago..........

Apple silicon chips | The M family.

Computers are made just like the human body. In the human body, the brain controls everything, handles every type of pressure occurring, and process the inputs and output it. Exactly like that the processor in computer plays or played a huge roll from the beginning of computers. Without a processor, the computer is like a human without a brain.  Nowadays there are various types of processors, as well as various large scale companies manufacture those. Simply the process of the processor is to handle the input - process them - Output it. So some examples for such companies are Intel, Nvidia, Apple and AMD.  When we take the most popular chip set Intel, For instance Intel has been founded in 1968 and been serving Windows and Apple devices since. Intel has 3 technologies named Intel single core, duo core and Quad-core.  But today's topic is not Intel, it is Apple M chips.  So when we take the history of Apple, from the beginning they manufactured Laptops and Computers n...

Auxins | The first major plant hormone.

  Basically auxin is a growth promoting hormone present in plants which produce in the tops of the shoots and roots. Auxins stimulate cell elongation in stem and root. Due to this, the stem apex of plants turn towards light due to dissimilar cell elongation of stem.  -Thats why plants always bend and grow towards light.                Caption- A plant growing towards light.  Question - what is the relationship between plant growth and Auxin hormone? Auxins produced in the apex diffuse downwards. Therefore it speed up the growth of new cells and the shoot of the plant grow upwards.  Question - What are the other functions rather than growth and stem  elongation? Promotes formation of lateral and adeventitious roots.  Regulates development of fruit. Enhances apical dominance. Note- Auxins concentrate in the parts of the plant where the light intensity is low. This is due to the the process of diffusion. Auxins move to ...

Abraham Lincoln

                                                  Abraham Lincoln Abraham Lincoln was an American statesman and lawyer who was the 16th president of the United States from 1861 until his assassination in 1865. Lincoln led the nation through the American Civil War, the country's greatest moral, constitutional, and political crisis. Mr. Lincoln was born in 1809, Kentucky, USA.    Abraham Lincoln  is  famous for  the Gettysburg Address, abolishing slavery and being one of the four presidents who have been assassinated.  Abraham's  father remarried and, as the frontier expanded and became more populated, so the quality of life increased.  Lincoln  always defined the Civil War as a struggle to save the Union, but in January 1863 he nonetheless issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed all slaves in areas still under...
