Nasa is celebrating after Ground Breaking Artificial Intelligence helped discover a new planet. Researchers used advanced Machine Learning technology from google to find a planet thousands of light years away. Michelle miller explains how the new technology could impact the search for alien life and another hanible planet. In the neverending search for life beyond planet earth, nasa scientists have uncovered the only other eight planet solar system they know of that circles a sun. With help from google, and their Machine Learning computer software, scientists analyzed thousands of data points captured from this nasa planet hunting space telescope , the kepler. That data helped researchers discover this new planet, kepl er90i. Having all of this data coming from kepler from scientists is like trying to drink from a fire host. Derrick pits say the way the new planet was discovered that has scientists buzzing. And makes their jobs easier. The google ai system has been able to search through that pile of information much faster than humans have been able to dig through it. You think about the analogy of the number of stars in the galaxy, like the number every sands grains on beach, it is as if weve been asked to search through all of the sand grains on the beach to find just the red sand grains. Like earth, kepler90i is the thirds planet from it sun in a eight planet system. But, unlike earth . The temperature on the surface of this plan set about 800 degrees fahrenheit, which is far too hot for the possible development of life as we know it, it is about 2500 light years away.
