“Weighing in at about seven times the mass of Earth, “
I’m ready to move,,, but does that mean I’d weigh 1,400 pounds? That might be difficult to manage!
Circumstantial evidence. We do not know for sure that there are planets. The stars may contain elements we have no knowledge of. These new elements may shift weight or absorb electrons or expel matter and then go in cycles.
Sounds great! When do we leave?
Just a snarky question, The article uses the phrase alien planets. What planet besides Earth would not be an alien planet?
