NASA will announce the discovery of an alien or extra-solar planets latest results Kepler spacecraft mission. 
 The announcement will be made at NASA Headquarters Auditorium in Washington, United States, and broadcast live on television NASA.Pengumuman will be done in a briefing at 13.00 local time or approximately 3 February at 01.00 WIB. Parties NASA said that the briefing was only going to discuss the findings of extra-solar planets latest.

Recently, Kepler managed to find the smallest alien planet named Kepler 10b. The planet is 1.4 times Earth's size to 4.6 times Earth's mass, the distance around a star 560 light years from Earth. Unfortunately, the planet unfit for human habitation as too close to their parent stars.
