An Earth-size planet has been spotted orbiting a nearby star at a distance that would makes it not too hot and not too cold — comfortable enough for life to exist, researchers announced today (Sept. 29). If confirmed, the exoplanet, named Gliese 581g, would be the first Earth-like world found residing in a star's habitable zone — a region where a planet's temperature could sustain liquid water on its surface.

Re: Earth-size planet capable of life discovered Crazy thing is - All this money spent on finding a habitable planet, when we are srewing up the most beautiful home that we live on now???
 Where's the motivation to fix the problems we are creating for our home now?!? Talk about sh&%%$*g on your own doorstep. And.... It will take 650 years travelling at 20000mph to get there! _________________ We all have the choice to exercise Free Will. amor vincit omnia "Ignis Natura Renovatur Integram" |
