 Hi, laurence, what’s a discovery that I believe it was u who made it. 

Yes, I and my team, we took a lot of ground basic oberserving and a lot of modeling, and also it was quite the team that actually made the discovery. I got to lead it coz I have been in this field for a long time. 
So tell us what u saw and what was evidence u actually discovered the planet had 2 suns. Well basically, what kepler does is kind of wide angle observe of habo space telescope, and it’s in space and basically what it records is brightness of the stars, so what happened is we saw 2 stars that orbit around each other and those are called …. And then in front of those 2, there was a planet that when it cross all of them so …orbit… as 2 stars. So the 2 stars orbiting around each other actually have a planet orbiting both of them at the same of time. And needs soil and planet … 2 stars we saw the double…. The double … was the planet. 
Well, Laurence, tell me what do you think when u discover this? 
Oh, it was exciting, because u know what science is like exceptions to things, e.g., if we find life on Mars, then we can compare with life on earth. They may not have DNA, and so on. So it tells us what are general characteristic and what are special characteristics. Well, in this case, it’s about planet carry systems. We discovered a fundamentally different planet carry system, so it’s really exciting because that has will have… for our understanding on our planet carry system by comparison with sth really different. And I have to say…
U have…
I going to say…
I am sorry to interrupt you.
It was not very long before we start calling… 
That is exactly the point that I want to talk about that u have…after…. I want to ask u, that u know, sth that was science fiction in 1977 that u now discovered in 2011. have u contacted Gorge XX, tell me about this.
Well actually this morning at NASA press conference, we had representative … life magic, John XX, and he said yes we compared notes……
It was a lot of fun coz u know u don’t have some picture before u look for it. And so we want to acknowledge that we were the thought pioneers that … planet existing that put a hero … on such a planet. So at least what we can do is to honor him let me find the real thing. 
I am sure it’s a very tough job. That Laurence, very very quickly, can this planet system support life?
Well now it’s too far away. It’s … venus and our solar system, but … are much smaller than our sun. so it’s just outside. I would say it’s about the temperature on the planet it’s um really cold… at best.
