When we were watching Newsround today we heard about seven new planets that were discovered. The names are:
B, C, D, E, F, G and H. They are orbiting another star in our solar system. NASA discovered the planets. They are 40 light years away and it could take 7000 years to get to when you are a human. They want to try and send a mechanical chip to the nearest star and see if it is fit for life.
