NASA discover most Earth-like planet yet

I have found two different newspapers which writes about the same news. I am going to compare them and see if I can find any similarities and differences. Both of these articles writes about that NASA have discovered a planet remarkably similar to our own Earth, located 1400 light years away, in the constellation Cygnus. Kepler, as they call it, is positioned about as far from it's parent star as Earth is from the sun, completing and orbit in 385 days, compared to Earth's 365 day orbit. At that distance, surface temperatures would be suitable for liquid water. 




Both of these articles include facts about the planet and the headlines absolutely suits the content. They use sources like astronomers, scientist and NASA, there is no random people talking about things they don't know anything about. The authors write in objective terms and expresses nothing subjectively. The content is quite similar in these articles. They convey facts and contains quotes spoken by scientists and people from NASA. Good quality and complementary content. I will say there is used some loaded language, Words that engages and creates interest to the readers keeps coming up, such as "huge, large and massive"




It was easy to find similarities between these news, but I had some struggle finding differences. They had very similar structure and content. However, one thing I noticed, was that the news from CNN mentioned what the plan was further. How they would proceed to do more reaserch on this planet. It also had more pictures and a video showing what they think Kepler looks like. That way CNN shows more expertise and thorough work.
