"M dwarfs may host a high percentage of the total number of planets in the galaxy."

Red dwarfs also tend to flare up a lot, periodically cooking any planets in their habitable zones.

That looks eerily close to what Planet X looks like. IF they want to “borrow’ Godzilla and Rodan to fight Monster Zero, don’t do it! it’s a trap.

Too hot to sustain life.

No one has managed to refute the anthropic principle yet.

We’re still scouring thaf heavens for a habitable exoplanet.

Total nose picking pulling out boogers. Calling this science is total fiction. Don’t you love the exact figures they toss around without — 1410° Fahrenheit (770°C) without bothering to mention the extremely sketchy degree of certainty they’d have to have trying to measure an itty-bitty rock only about 10,400 miles in diameter at the end of an arc of observation 40plus light years long (it ain’t even a pixel pimple on that scale!) while it’s rushing around it’s star in just eleven hours? “If it is this, it may be that” and ‘it could be, but might be this”. . . but these nose pickers can say with authority that it may have a surface like that of our moon or Mercury, when WE couldn’t predict the surfaces of any of our local neighbors accurately INCLUDING Mercury or the back side of our own Moon until we actually went and looked! Don’t get me started on what they thought was under the clouds of Venus just a few short decades ago! Not to mention these guys don’t have a firm grasp on what forces have caused the various features we DO see on the variety of surfaces in our local neighborhood (ask them to explain the numerous hexagonal sided craters we see on the moon, Mars, and even on asteroids), yet they think they can make a prediction about the surface of this supposed “rocky” planet some 48 light years away which they can’t even really see? Talk about irrereproduceable claims and pseudo science! This takes the cake.
