Plato was a Greco Bactrian king who reigned for a short time in southern Bactria or the Paropamisade during the mid 2nd century BCE.

Some of Plato s coins have inscriptions which may be possibly be interpreted as dates using the Indo Greek era which started around 186 BCE. In that case Plato ruled around 140 BCE.

PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars PLATO is a European Space Agency proposed space observatory that will use a group of photometer s to discover and characterize extrasolar planet s of all sizes and kinds around cool dwarf like our Sun and subgiant stars. The satellite is planned to be launched in 2017 or 2018 on a Soyuz rocket family Soyuz Fregat rocket, to the Earth Sun L2 Lagrangian point . It will differ from COROT and Kepler spacecraft Kepler in that it will study relatively bright stars between magnitudes 8 and 11 making it easier to confirm discoveries using follow up Doppler spectroscopy radial velocity measurements. It will have a much larger field of view than the Kepler mission which has 100 square degrees allowing it to study a larger sample of stars. The different versions of the project plan to observe stars in a 1250 3600 deg sup 2 sup area of the sky, thus tracking light curves of up to 260,000 cool dwarfs and subgiants Kepler had 25,000 stars of these types .
