NASA’s Kepler telescope finds 26 new planets
Kepler, NASA’s planet-hunting space telescope, has found 11 new planetary systems, including one with five planets all orbiting closer to their parent star than Mercury circles the Sun, scientists said on Thursday.
The discoveries boost the list of confirmed planets outside the Earth’s solar system to 729, including 60 found by the Kepler team. The telescope, launched in space in March 2009, can detect slight but regular dips in the amount of light coming from stars. Scientists can then determine if the changes are caused by orbiting planets passing by, relative to Kepler’s view.
Kepler scientists have another 2,300 candidate planets awaiting additional confirmation. (Photos/illustrations by NASA/Ames/JPL-Caltech; University of Toulouse; Reuters/AFP/Getty Images)

Years, (2011)
Bartholomäus Traubek
“The grooves in a vinyl record contain audio information that can be transmitted through a turntable’s needle into audible sound. But what if instead of an LP, you could play the rings of a tree trunk?
That is what German-born artist Bartholomäus Traubek appears to have accomplished with “Years”, a new artwork that takes a converted record player and uses it to “play” cross-sections of a tree, generating sound by scanning the spinning rings on the surface of the wood with a PlayStation Eye Camera. This data is transmitted through the control arm (which has a stepper motor attached) to a computer, which generates a music track based on the surface readings using the program Ableton Live.
So what does a tree sound like? According to Traubeck’s work, a haunting, spare piano - albeit one prone to jarring notes when the turntable’s “needle” passes over a particularly knotty part of the ring pattern.”
