I used to refute junk science by saying, "That's great. Show me the study." Now they are coming back with these junk journals. It is just making my life more difficult. I have had to change it by saying, "That's great. Show me the peer review."

Kepler's field of view is only 1/400th of the sky but it's range is further than 2700 Parsecs. So the planets discovered range between 127 and 8802 light years.
