Massive 'Super Earth' Has Conditions Suitable For Life, Astronomers Announce

R SUPEREARTHZOOM Large

A giant 'Super Earth' has been discovered relatively close to our solar system which may be capable of supporting life.
The planet was found orbiting around HD 40307, an orange star which is about three-quarters as large as our sun.
It is located in the Pictor constellation, about 42 light years from Earth, and has at least six planets.
The first of the planets orbiting the sun was confirmed in 2008, but none were thought to have the correct conditions for life.

I just bet they'll have Unobtainium in vast quantities. Death to the giant Smurfs!!

may be capa­ble of sup­port­ing life

Comments like that always make me think "don't even think about it, can't even take care of the world we're on and you fools think you have any right to even consider inhabiting another planet?"
I came into this world kicking and screaming while covered in someone elses blood
and I have no problem with going out the same way :twisted:

I think people (humans) need to stop hiding from the fact that we're a virus. A swarm.

Sure we've used up our planet,really there was no other way it was gonna go.

The inevitable next step is to spread out into space. It's that or let ourselves die out.

We have a symbiotic,but more parasitic relationship to the planets we inhabit.

Best we can say is that at least the first to inhabit this next planet will enjoy a few hundred years of clean air/water before we start to pollute and destroy it.

Let's just face it we're parasites. We either feed or cease to exist.

But what do we choose to keep in this miraculous cabinet? Little broken things, sad trinkets that we play...
