3 Aligned Towers Discovered On Mars

 
Located in the area of Terra Meridiani, researchers have spotted three ‘Towers’ on the Martian Surface that are so perfectly aligned, that just as the Pyramids of Giza on Earth, these Martian towers seem to mimic the constellation of Orion.
The towers are located in the Terra Meridiani region on Mars, coincidentally, the same region chosen as the landing spot for NASA’s Curiosity Rover.
The towers were first noted by YouTube channel Mundodesconocido. The Youtube channel posted a video discussing the towers.

The video description read:
"Investigating on some Mars images, we have recently found a row of huge towers located in the Martian area of Terra Meridiani. Due to their peculiar features, we believe that they have an artificial origin. In the following video, we will show you all the amazing information, evidences as well as animated 3D models that will allow you to evaluate correctly the information we propose."

7 Earth-like planets found orbiting star 39 light-years away


 
Scientists have discovered what looks like the best place where life (as we know it) may exist outside our own solar system.
Seven Earth-sized planets, all of which could contain water, have been found orbiting a small star 39 light-years away.
"We have made a crucial step toward finding if there is life out there," said Amaury Triaud, co-author of a study published Wednesday in the science journal Nature.
"I don't think any time before we had the right planets to discover and find out if there was.
"Here, if life managed to thrive … then we will know. Before, it was indication; now, we have the right target."
The discovery is the first of its kind. Never before have so many Earth-like planets been found orbiting a single star.
TRAPPIST-1 is 39 light-years away from Earth, or about 229 trillion miles (369 trillion kilometers). It would take 39 years to get to its current location traveling at the speed of light.
