NASA finds 3 new planets where life could exist By Edward Upright
An artist's concept depicts NASA's Kepler misssion's smallest habitable zone planet. Kepler-62f, a super-Earth-size planet is in the habitable zone of a star smaller and cooler than the sun. Photo: NASA Ames/JPL-Caltech
Blog Post Assignment:
Write a 3-4 sentence summary on the article.
Using context clues, what is a habitable zone?
What would it be like living on planet Kepler-62f ?
In the story that there are three planets in space . In the text it says that people discovered the three planets . In the article it said that they do not have an exciting name in all of the three planets . In the text it said that there were alot of fun things there . An habitable is something about planets . If I was in the planet Kepler62F it would be very scary , and people could die there because there is no air.How many planets were there?

In space there are three planets.in the text it said people discovered three planets in space. I would feel scared because there is no air and you can die from that. Also that you have to wear a space suit to go to space.

Wow I never knew there can be life on other plants. I though we were the only planet (earth) with water,air,food,and life.Why did the scientists want to know if there was other plants that had life? I know that there can be life on mars but it is very difficult. I cant believe that there is water,air,rocks in the planets.The main idea of this article is..... kelper found 3 new plants that probably can have life. If I was living in Kelper-62f then I would probably wearing a light sweater (what I wore today...) and I would be humid because Kelper-62f it said it was cooler than the sun so it is humid.

I think a habitable zone is a place in space and they called it that because they were three planets. I think it would be very big and cold also very hot. Why does Nasa always discover planets.

Alisa Park I was amazed to about that they had all kinds of things in the other three planets because like in Mercury , Venus , Mars the community that were working on , Jupiter , Saturn , Uranus , and Neptune\e do not have all of those things that are in the three planets . I am wondering what kind of fun article , or text are we getting?

I think a habitable zone is an area in space where a planet could have water.Why did the scientists didn't talk about the air we use?It would be like walking around on Earth on a cloudy day.

In this article, NASA's Kepler probe found 3 exoplanets where life can exist. 2 contained a lot of water and 1 looked similar to Earth, complete with land, water, and maybe an atmosphere with clouds. The names of the exoplanets were: Kepler 62E, Kepler 62F, and Kepler 69C. Scientists are still wondering if either one of them has alien life.
A habitable zone is an area from a star in which a planet can support life.
If I were an astronaut on Kepler 62F, I'd explore the exoplanet and if I find signs of life or living creatures, I could build a settlement for other astronauts who later visit me.

The main idea is that sienctist find it very interesting that they might of found life in three planets which they call the "habitable zone." Those are the names of the three planets that is concitered to have life. Plus living one one of these planets would be strange for us since were use to clouds, grass, skies, and animals. It would be a great disaster!!!!!!!! But on the other hand living on another planet could be a new change for us humans. We would have to learn a new way to live on a new planet. I also think that we should do more reasearch on this planet so we wont have any problems.

A habitable zone is a planet that has H2O. Living on planet Kepler-62f will be dimmer compared to earth. Too bad it is far away to visit any time soon

The article is about if there was life on mars.There is lots of planets.Some have water.A habitable zone is a planet that has water.If I was on Kepler-62f it would be cool because it's not cold ,hot ,it's warm.

The article was about that Kepler is finding water on planets and find only 3 planets that have water. A habitable zone is an area in space where a planet could have water. It would be living on 62f is it will have nature and is the same as Earth.
