Life elsewhere?

http://edition.cnn.com/2013/04/18/us/planet-discovery/index.html?iid=article_sidebar

In the midst of chaos, three planets have been discovered as a hope of life elsewhere outside our solar system. They don't know surely if these planets have all the conditions to have life but they say that these are by far the better candidates. They were in the research of earth-like planets (of the same magnitudes and with a host star similar as our sun) and they found these planets. They are called only with the name of its galaxy (kepler) the number of its star and finally a letter assigned to each planet. So following this rules they are called Kepler-62e, Kepler-62f and Kepler-69c. They didn't know almost nothing more about them because they have been seen by a satellite from light-years of distance. They are all a bit  larger than earth but they have a smaller star a and similar (as the earth) days to round it's star. The main reason to think that they could contain life is because they fit the bill for the habitable zone, which is the one that can has liquid water to hold life.

Opinion:

In the news it says to that there are a lot of other planets that are candidates to hold life but they are the best ones until the moment. I think this is an important breakthrough in science because they are  increasingly getting closer. Moreover that doesn't mean nothing because in the new it says to that we can know if they have good conditions to hold life but we are far away from them and we would take a lot of time to get there, so it seems impossible that some day us (us=our generations) achieve to meet new forms of life, but we will be trying it.

I think this news is very catchy because it let you the possibility to imagine that there are life elsewhere and I have to confess that I like all this topic of science, and its breakthroughs in healthy and the space.
