God hasn’t looked here lately, took a look and thought ‘I’ve got to start over, it’s a wreck down there’.

I’m struggling with this article. It states “8.6 times as massive as Earth”. Saturn is ~9x Earth, and Neptune is ~4X Earth, so I don’t understand why they call this one a sub-Neptune planet.

C-SPAN recently re-aired a scientific discussion from 1975 about the possibility of life elsewhere than on earth. It included some big name scientists like Carl Sagan and George Wald (Nobel Prize winner 1967) and a theologian. Most if not all thought that life must exist elsewhere.

And exactly when can we go to this planet? Ah... That’s the rub. We can’t and never will. Oh well.

I say round up the climate loons, stuff 'em in a SpaceX Starship and send 'em off. A little sweat equity and they can have that dump terraformed into Utopia in no time. They are climate experts aren't they?
