more “hot Jupiters” turned up in planet searches,

A "Hot Jupiter" sounds like something that would cost extra at a brothel.

LOL.

From what I understand, our solar system was headed for one of these “hot Jupiter” setups if it wast for Saturn pulling back on Jupiter as it was migrating closer to the Sun, and into a stabilized orbit.

Also that our system likely had up to 4 more planets that Jupiter ended up flinging out into space, including another Neptune-sized world.

Among all these exoplanets, are there any terrestrial planets, similar to Earth? Maybe they don’t have a protective atmosphere like Earth; or liquid water like Earth. But are they even terrestrial like Earth? And if not, what’s all the hubbub about. Pardon my impertinence.

When someone brings up “global warming” as being “settled science,” let them know that science is NEVER settled, and send them to this topic for the perfect example.

I think all those places should be fine. Except Europa. I would attempt no landing there.
