Astronomers say they have for the first time spotted a planet beyond our own in what is sometimes called the Goldilocks zone for life: Not too hot, not too cold. Juuuust right.

Not too far from its star, not too close. So it could contain liquid water. The planet itself is neither too big nor too small for the proper surface, gravity and atmosphere.

It's just right. Just like Earth.

I can see it now. Humans ruin Earth and decide to move there, only to find it's a barren hunk of rock.

Yeah... that is the problem when it comes to not exploring systems first hand.

Human Empire? I think you better worry about the American Empire a little bit more. The Human Empire will never exist, because quite honestly. We already have problems on one planet. So you expect us to go out there and take over planets? All I have to say is lololol. Even if it was that type of planet, It doesn't mean that life exists there as we know it.

So, do we have a device capable of blowing up an entire planet?
We should use it, just in case

One thought. War of the Worlds.

I wonder what country found this planet first. If it was then no one is gonna argue with them when they call it New Pakistan.

Ugh, I hate how these things devolve into "evil grubbing humans!" pretentio-fests. We've got thumbs and rockets! Let's go get it. Status quo has to end sooner or later for everything, whether it's a giant hunk of minerals zipping through space, or colonization.

For science!

Hopefully the first of many in our solar neighbourhood. I'm more interested in when or if they will get to work on terraforming Mars considering its within our technological reach... Going to another system is probably not going to be something we're capable of until the 22nd century if not longer

Right on. Whether it's usable or just Mercury's big brother, the point is to find out.

terraforming mars would take thousands of years, probably more

and it would still suck after

itd actually be easier to just switch mars and venus. they'd both be perfect if they were in opposite positions. unfortunately if you wanted to do that you shouldve done it a few hundred years ago, most of venus' water is gone now.
