10 light years into space.. is nothing. like I said.. we are basically looking in our backyard.. we have no clue what is beyond that. We are assuming.. surmising.. what we think we know what is there, but we don't. Maybe when we get that human colony on Mars, we can project a bit further.. but just a bit ;) 10 light years is something... the voyager probes, launched in the late 70's, are still not 1 light year away yet, after about 45 years... from space.com When the Voyagers were launched in 1977, NASA expected them to last four or five years, long enough to get them through close encounters with Jupiter and Saturn. But, they just kept going and going. Voyager 2 went on to flybys of Uranus in 1986 and Neptune in 1989. It is now about 105 astronomical units from Earth. (One AU is the average distance between the Earth and sun, about 92 million miles.) Voyager 1, which flew out of the plane of the solar system after its 1980 flyby of Saturn, is in interstellar space at 127 AUs. It takes light 8 minutes and 20 seconds to travel from the Sun to the Earth. That's 8 and 1/3 minutes for 1 AU. The number of minutes in a year is 365 days x 24 hours/day x 60 minutes/hour = 525,600 minutes Divide 525,600 by 8.33333 for the final answer: There are 63,072 AU in a light year. in the name 4 times soud speed any sistituation can be happening around 5 light years area of space......you've didn't reading some detail of kepler right? go cheack the source about it....you'll be suprising...... |
