10 planets float through the galaxy with life

The team of international scientists has discovered 10 planets "floating", drifting through the Milky Way rather than orbiting stars.

Results detect planets the size of Jupiter just published in the journal Nature, scientists are meant to be deep, open a new chapter in the history of galaxies.

The planets were discovered by computer scientists at Massey University and physicist Ian Bond universe, through the help of a software.

The distance from Earth to the planet is about 25,000 light years, equivalent to 1 / 3 the distance from Earth to the center of the galaxy. The planet can not see with the naked eye, because they do not emit light.

Research results show the potential for floating planets smaller, similar sized Earth, may have life, but so far scientists have not discovered.

Bond said that the planet could be ejected from the solar system by gravitational interactions with planets or other stars, or can be formed from balls of dust and gas burst, but not enough to ignite a large nuclear power and create light. According to the Vietnamese Land
