Kepler Planet-Detection Mission: Introduction and First Results

William J. Borucki, +70 more
- 19 Feb 2010 - 
TL;DR: The Kepler mission was designed to determine the frequency of Earth-sized planets in and near the habitable zone of Sun-like stars, which is the region where planetary temperatures are suitable for water to exist on a planet's surface.

Biodegradation and Rhodococcus – masters of catabolic versatility

TL;DR: Rhodococcus appear to have adopted a strategy of hyper-recombination associated with a large genome that contributes to their catabolic diversity by acting as 'mass storage' for a large number of catabolic genes.

Characteristics of Kepler Planetary Candidates Based on the First Data Set

William J. Borucki, +61 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the identity and characteristics of 305 released stars with planetary candidates are given, and five candidates are present in and near the habitable zone; two near super-Earth size, and three bracketing the size of Jupiter.
