Although NASA's Kepler space telescope ran out of fuel and ended its mission in 2018, citizen scientists have used its data to discover an exoplanet 226 light-years away in the Taurus constellation.The exoplanet, known as K2-288Bb, is about twice the size of Earth and orbits within the habitable zone of its star, meaning liquid water may exist on its surface. It's difficult to tell whether the planet is rocky like Earth or a gas giant like Neptune.The planet is in the K2-288 system, which contains a pair of dim, cool M-type stars that are 5.1 billion miles apart, about six times the distance between Saturn and the sun. The brightest of the two stars is half as massive as our sun, and the other star is one-third of the sun's mass. K2-288Bb orbits the smaller, dimmer star, completing a full orbit every 31.3 days.K2-288Bb is half the size of Neptune or 1.9 times the size of Earth, placing it in the "Fulton gap" between 1.5 and two times the size of Earth. This is a rare size of exoplanet that makes it perfect for studying planetary evolution because so few have been found.The discovery was announced Monday at the 233rd meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Seattle."It's a very exciting discovery due to how it was found, its temperate orbit and because planets of this size seem to be relatively uncommon," said Adina Feinstein, a University of Chicago graduate student in astrophysics and lead author of a paper describing the new planet that was accepted for publication by The Astronomical Journal.Although all of the data from the Kepler mission was run through an algorithm to determine potential planet candidates, visual manpower was needed to actually look at the possible planet transits -- or dip in light when a planet passes in front of its star -- in the light curve data. Kepler observed other events that could be mistaken for planet transits by a computer.But the "reboot" of the Kepler mission in 2014 that led to the K2 mission allowed for multiple observation campaigns that brought in even more data. Every three months, Kepler would stare at a different patch of sky."Reorienting Kepler relative to the Sun caused miniscule changes in the shape of the telescope and the temperature of the electronics, which inevitably affected Kepler's sensitive measurements in the first days of each campaign," said study co-author Geert Barentsen, an astrophysicist at NASA's Ames Research Center, in a statement.Those first three days of data were ignored, and errors were corrected in the rest of the data gathered.But the scientists couldn't do it alone. There were too many light curves to study on their own.So the reprocessed, "cleaned-up" light curves were uploaded through the 2731

An 8-year-old boy in Kentucky donated 165 toys to the Ludlow Police Department’s annual holiday toy drive, making sure local children in need wake up Christmas morning to presents under their trees.“I’m happy,” third-grader Braxton Gillespie, who solicited donations by posting copies of a hand-drawn flyer across town, said Friday night. “I just get to help people that don’t have stuff.”The department’s toy drive tends to run down to the wire, Chief Scott Smith said Friday night. Officers spend the early winter reaching out to local schools and identifying around 30 families that need extra help to fill out their Christmas lists, but there are always late entries. “Every year, a couple days before (Christmas), we always get some surprise families added to the list, and we always scramble,” Smith said. “Generally, the officers pay for gifts out of their pockets, so you get one guy going to buy three or four basketballs. We spend our own money to get it done.” Braxton’s donation ensures that won’t happen this year.He said he was inspired by a YouTube video about giving. His method for collecting the toys was simple. He drew a flyer reading I’m helping the Ludlow Police Department. I want to fill my mom’s van with toys to help kids to have a merry Christmas. #BraxtonMission #SpreadingCheer Thanks. He posted it around town, asking friends and family for help in the process.The donations rolled in, and the police department was stunned.“This little boy really kind of brings joy because he’s a sweet kid, and he’s doing it all on his own,” Smith said. “He was raised right.” Braxton hopes to donate twice as many toys in 2020. 1656

A veteran educator says there's no shortage of moms and dads who are willing to bend or ignore school rules to do what they think is best for their child. Elementary school principal Gerry Brooks, of Lexington, Kentucky shared his opinion in a funny video about a serious topic — the recent college admissions scandal case in which actors Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin, among dozens of others, were charged.An administrator for 12 years and former teacher, Brooks said in an interview with CNN that no educators should be surprised by the scandal. Some parents will do things that disagree with policies in place to meet their personal needs.In the interview, Brooks said it has been his experience that parents will lie about why their children are late to school, drive around cones in student drop-off lanes, allow peanut butter to be brought into classrooms with allergic students and more. They will lie about larger issues such as their official home address to ensure their children get into schools with stronger ratings and athletic departments.He says it is a misunderstanding of what they think is best versus rules the schools put in place to provide the top safety and education. 1209
