Hum, Astronomers will announce a significant discovery by the Spitzer Space Telescope at a listen-and-logon news briefing on Wednesday, April 20th, at 1900 GMT. The new finding involves a sun-like star, with a planetary system similar to our own. <a href="http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/Media/050420telecon/">Link </a>(available April 20)

Wow significant discovery indeed. Just hope it's not the same old jupiter sized planets though, that's starting to get old :/
This seems like a different way to announce such a finding...is there a chance that this is perhaps very big news?
Blob, do you have any link to some article about this thing that is going to be announced? Looks like very interesting
Hum, can’t find any links .... I’ve sent an email to Dr. Kim Weaver , but it looks like everyone’s tight lipped.... Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! The only link i found pointed to observations of debris found around Vega about a year ago... (perhaps it’s a follow up to that?) http://xxx.lanl.gov/PS_cache/astro-ph/pdf/0504/0504086.pdf (780kb)
Maybe they found debris of an alien craft? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Where's btismah when you need him! JD
If there isn't any article about this issue, how do you have managed to know that there will be a conference the 20th april? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I have searched all the web and I'm unable to find anything, I'm starting to think that you have some relation with the members of the Spitzer telescope research program and they have given you some first-hand information, is possible?

Hum, and he missed the website <a href="http://www.spitzer.caltech.edu/Media/050420telecon/">link</a> i gave in my first post... (it was cunningly hidden in the body of the text, i must admit) >>I'm starting to think... you dismiss that i`m a timelord?
They found an alien space craft rotating a sun-like star. Now the government forces are moving in and shutting them up. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Not really but I figured I'd put my woo-woo hat on for a bit. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
