NASA confirms 6,000 exoplanets ? scientists say we?re entering ?Next Great Chapter of Exploration?
NASA?s tally of alien worlds has just hit 6,000 ? a staggering milestone reached in only three decades of searching beyond our solar system. From gas giants to rocky super-Earths, the discoveries reveal just how diverse the galaxy really is. But one world remains elusive: a true Earth twin. ?We?re entering the next great chapter of exploration,? NASA said, ?to find planets that could support life ? and remind us the universe still holds worlds waiting to be found.?
