Alan Boss was quoted on an NPR morning Edition story that aired last Friday, 27 August. The story, entitled “Astronomers Identify Two New Solar Systems,” discusses the recent discoveries made with NASA’s Kepler Telescope and the possibility that Kepler will eventually identify planets like Earth. Boss commented, “We’re finding more and more evidence that Earth-like planets are going to be quite common. We don’t have them yet, but we’re well on the way to discovering them.” Click here to hear the full broadcast.
