NASA's Paradigm Shift - Life in our Galaxy is very likely

NASA's Kepler Mission has discovered 54 planet candidates that orbit in the habitable zone of their host star; this so-called "Goldilocks" region is "not too hot or too cold, but just right" for the possible existence of liquid water on the surface of a planet. Four of those candidates are near Earth-sized planets in orbit around small, cool stars. The findings, discussed at a news conference held Feb. 2 at NASA Headquarters in Washington, are based on data collected by the space telescope between May and September, 2009. Ground-based observatories will be used this spring and summer to help determine if these candidates can be validated as planets.

Who exactly is using the phrase "Paradigm Shift". I thought NASA scientists have felt for a while now (past 10 or more years?) that life is very likely in our Galaxy.

In fact, there are several NASA scientist who have been saying for while now that they feel there is a good chance for other independent life in our solar system.
