NASA plans to launch a new planet-hunting telescope on Wednesday at 6:51 p.m. EST aboard a SpaceX rocket. The telescope, called the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), may find thousands of worlds relatively close to Earth. Scientists hope to discover about 50 small, rocky planets that may be habitable to alien life. SpaceX and NASA TV will broadcast live video during TESS's launch. The mission was planned by scientists at MIT. They say TESS could discover thousands of new worlds within 24 months.
