TL;DR: The K2 mission as discussed by the authors uses an innovative way of operating the Kepler spacecraft to observe target fields along the ecliptic for the next 2-3 years, with an estimated photometric precision near 400 ppm in a single 30 minute observation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present and discuss five candidate exoplanetary systems identified with the Kepler spacecraft, and discuss the implications that multi-transiting systems have on the distribution of orbital inclinations in planetary systems, and hence their dynamical histories, as well as their likely masses and chemical compositions.
