NAI Discoveries Ranked Among NASA's Top Science Stories of the Year
December 28, 2005 / Posted by: Shige Abe
Scientists from NAI’s NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Lead Team and NAI’s Carnegie Institution of Washington Lead Team and their collaborators used the NASA Spitzer Space Telescope to capture the first light ever detected from two planets orbiting stars other than the sun. Spitzer picked up the infrared glow from the Jupiter-sized planets. The findings mark the beginning of a new age of planetary science, in which extrasolar planets can be directly measured and compared.
