In search of aliens: New NASA picture shows 1,235 planets that could house extra-terrestrial lifeforms.

If aliens exist, these are what their planets look like, according to NASA.

Astronomers at the U.S. space department have spent the last two years scouring the Milky Way for Earth-like planets in their quest for foreign life forms.
