New Exo Planet
I read in the newspaper, that we have a new planet. Could you tell me more about this? That is if you heard this.

An exoplanet is a planet outside of our solar system, so I don't know what you mean by "we".
Can you clarify?

I'm talking about "we" as our solar system.

I don't understand your topic, because an exoplanet is, by definition, not a part of our solar system.

We discover new exoplanets all the time, about 70 last year. I don't know what you want to know...

Well then, thank you for sharing :). 2 interesting exoplanets are Gliese 581 d, which could be habitable, and HD 189733 b, which is the first planet discovered to have organic molecules in the atmosphere (methane).

I sure hope not, I've got an 1895 book on Astronomy, and shows 8 Planets. Only recently it had been found to be accurate.
