<p><img src="http://digg.com/space/Astronomers_spot_seven_planets_orbiting_sun_like_star/l.jpg" align="right">We have found what is most likely the system with the most planets yet discovered,” Christophe Lovis, lead author of the paper reporting the findings said in a statement. Using 190 individual HARPS measurements, the astronomers detected the tiny back and forth motions of the star caused by the complex gravitational attractions from five or more planets. The five strongest signals correspond to planets with Neptune-like masses — between 13 and 25 Earth masses — which orbit the star with periods ranging from about 6 to 600 days. These planets are located between 0.06 and 1.4 times the Earth-Sun distance from their central star, the team stated. On average the planets in the inner region of the HD 10180 system have 20 times the mass of the Earth, whereas the inner planets in our own Solar System — Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars — have an average mass of half that of the Earth, the astronomers stated. “We also have good reasons to believe that two other planets are present,” Lovis, <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/community/node/65397" target="_blank">Read ahead</a></p>

It’s all part of a wild plan to send a human into space on a shoestring budget (in the thousands, not the millions), and it seems to be going pretty well so far. The launch of the “Tycho Brahe” spacecraft (pictured above), which is really as small as it looks and will be towed to sea by a submarine built by one of the team members, is slated to take place on August 30th. A manned launch is still probably a few years off, but this is the first full scale launch for the team, and obviously a huge milestone. We wish the team the best of luck, and will have a bottle of our best bubbly standing by to celebrate. <a href="http://www.engadget.com/2010/08/24/amateur-copenhagen-suborbitals-team-about-to-send-a-dummy-into-a/" target="_blank">Read ahead</a></p>
