NASA recently announced the discovery of five new exo-planets, planets that lie outside our solar system.

I was particularly pleased to read about NASA's discovery because the man that telescope is named after - Johannes Kepler - is one of those wonderful characters who has contributed so much to our understanding of the universe, yet is something of an unsung hero.
