Gliese 581 d: A Water World?
They're getting closer to finding another Earth out there. From a European Southern Observatory news release:
Well-known exoplanet researcher Michel Mayor today announced the discovery of the lightest exoplanet found so far. The planet, "e," in the famous system Gliese 581, is only about twice the mass of our Earth. The team also refined the orbit of the planet Gliese 581 d, first discovered in 2007, placing it well within the habitable zone, where liquid water oceans could exist....
With the discovery of Gliese 581 e, the planetary system now has four known planets, with masses of about 1.9 (planet e), 16 (planet b), 5 (planet c), and 7 Earth-masses (planet d). The planet furthest out, Gliese 581 d, orbits its host star in 66.8 days. "Gliese 581 d is probably too massive to be made only of rocky material, but we can speculate that it is an icy planet that has migrated closer to the star," says team member Stephane Udry. The new observations have revealed that this planet is in the habitable zone, where liquid water could exist. "'d' could even be covered by a large and deep ocean -- it is the first serious 'water world' candidate," continued Udry.
Personally, I'm not going to be impressed until I see actual images of exodolphins and exowhales.
And three-masted ships. Motorboats. I want to know if convergent evolution extends all the way to surfing techniquest (goofy-foot = goofy-tentacle, etc.).
This is exciting stuff from Mayor et al. and shows how rapidly the exoplanet field is advancing. The only catch is that, with the astrometric technique of Mayor, we don't see these planets directly, and their nature is entirely inferred from the wobble of starlight. Ultimately we need pictures of these things, ideally a movie with a soundtrack and sub-titles (for those of us not fluent in Gliesean).
