Discover the first 4 peripheral planets in 2012

Scientists have discovered four peripheral planets outside the solar system that exist in orbit.

According to the researchers, the discovery of peripheral planets does not stem from the Kepler space telescope of the US Aerospace Agency (NASA) or any other space telescope, which originates. from a telescope system observed from the ground by the Harvard-Smithson Astrophysics Center (USA).

According to Discovery , four peripheral planets outside the solar system are named the HAT-P-34b, the HAT-P-35b, the HAT-P-36b and the HAT-P-37b around the stars. , with extremely short 'one year' completion time. Specifically, the rotation of four peripheral planets in turn, in only 5.5 days, 3.6 days, 1.3 days and 2.8 days while the Earth's orbit around the Face Heaven in a year must experience exactly 365 days.

The Automation Telescope Network project, made from Hungary, consists of 6 small 11cm diameter telescopes, located at the Fred Lawrence Whipple Observatory in Arizona and the Mauna Kea Astronomical Observatory, Hawaii (USA). ) .

The discovery of peripheral planets outside this solar system, opens a promising new year in the hunt for planets outside the solar system.
