In what is believed to be the first confirmed alien world of its kind, the U.S. space agency has announced that NASA’s Kepler telescope has discovered a planet, which orbits around two suns.
The planet is named Kepler-16b, which is said to be an uninhabitable cold gas giant, similar to Saturn.
The new planet is 200 Light Years from Earth and its surface temperature ranges between -100 to -150 Fahrenheit (-73 to -101 Celsius).
“This discovery is stunning,” said co-author Alan Boss
