Artificial intelligence finds solar system with 8 planets like ours - Times of India

MIAMI: A solar system with as many planets as our own has been discovered with the help of NASA's Kepler space telescope and Artificial Intelligence (AI), the US space agency said Thursday. "Our solar system now is tied for most number of planets around a single star," NASA said in a statement. However, none of the planets are expected to be hospitable to life. The eight-planet system -- the largest known outside of ours -- orbits a star called Kepler 90 some 2,545 light-years away. "The Kepler-90 star system is like a mini version of our solar system," said Andrew Vanderburg, an astronomer at the University of Texas at Austin.
