  • Timothy Morton, associate research scholar at Princeton University in New Jersey
  • Natalie Batalha, Kepler mission scientist at NASA's Ames Research Center in Moffett Field, California
  • Charlie Sobeck, Kepler/K2 mission manager at Ames

When Kepler was launched in March 2009, scientists did not know how common planets were outside our solar system. Thanks to Kepler’s treasure trove of discoveries, astronomers now believe there may be at least one planet orbiting every star in the sky.

Kepler completed its prime mission in 2012, and collected data for an additional year in an extended mission. In 2014, the spacecraft began a new extended mission called K2. K2 continues the search for exoplanets while introducing new research opportunities to study young stars, supernovae and other cosmic phenomena.
