How many planets has Kepler confirmed?
On May 10, 2016, NASA announced that the Kepler mission has verified 1,284 new planets. Based on some of the planet’s sizes, about 550 could potentially be rocky planets. Nine of these orbit in their stars’ habitable zone.
Can we live on Kepler 22?
It’s possible Kepler-22b is mostly gaseous, in which case it might not be all that massive, but also may not be a very fun place to live. It’s possible it’s comprised very similarly to Earth, mostly made of rock, iron, ice, and water. In which case its mass would be something like 10 – 15 times that of Earth.
