Title: 4 Planets discovered orbiting 'sun-like' star
Post by: PG on December 13, 2009, 11:53:26 AM
Apparently these planets, which are only 27 light years away and can be seen from both hemisphere's, are small enough to suggest that an earth like planet could exist in the same system. Cool. ;D

It's amazing that we can figure this stuff out. I don't think we'll get there in spaceships. But there are other ways which may be thought of and built.
