You're missing the point it proves that alien life is guaranteed to exist in the universe and that it's not so far away. It also means that our planet has already been visted or colonized. This discovery means a lot if you understand it's meaning. Suppose that we find someday the technology to opene wormholes and travel into hyperspace! How long would it take before humans made contact with other worlds? See it matters because now we know we don't have to travel billions of light years to find other life forms! |

We are seeing the light from them,as it was,for all we know they might not even be there anymore Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69265760 Truth but 40 Lightyears means 40 years in the past. I doubt that something could have happened that can wipe out an entire solar system.... Unless they have their own rogue nibiru like planet lurking in their star system. Na it's probably still there don't worry about that. Infact I don't think we have to go that far to find other habitable exoplanets. |

NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope has revealed 7 Earth-sized planets orbiting a tiny star only 40 light-years away. Three of them are firmly in the habitable zone. Quoting: The 14th noa 1310231 At a news conference in Washington D.C. today (February 22, 2017), NASA announced that its Spitzer Space Telescope has observed the first known system of seven Earth-size planets around a single star. Three of these planets are firmly located in what’s called the habitable zone, the area around the parent star where a rocky planet is most likely to have liquid water – key to life as we know it. The discovery sets a new record for greatest number of known planets in a star’s habitable zone. After all, our solar system has only two planets in the habitable zone: Earth and Mars. This exoplanet system – called TRAPPIST-1 – has three. Because they are located outside of our solar system, these planets are scientifically known as exoplanets. Full article: [link to earthsky.org] This is only 40 lightyears away, this means there could be tens of thousands of habitable planets in our universe! And that means by definition thousands of different alien races! I knew it the universe is full of Et's but for some reason they do not show themselves! Strange isn't it why would an alien race be afraid of us? Perhaps our planet is already covertly colonized by a very advanced and evil race of et's. Bullshit, more made up bullshit from Nasa. They will always make these announcements to perpetuate the great lie. |
