Exoplanet ping.
Once upon a time, in a solar system far far away...
I wonder if I’ll ever live to see close-up imagery of an earth-like body in one of the nearby systems from an earth-launched vehicle.
My guess is “no.” But I at least hope to live a long time!
I Jar Jar Binks is there, blow it up.
Only 500 light years away.
I = If
Yes!
It’s so very lonely, you’re 500 light years from home.
The question is it a conservative planet?
A conservative planet, if you can keep it.
That’s the kind of talk that would get us banned from the Federation of planets...
Jar Jar’s death is worth any price to be paid.
We need to invade that planet, convert them to Christianity and hear the lamentations of their females... assuming they have females.

Hi [Pizza Man],
Size of a planet and its location around a star are only two out of over a dozen factors that determine whether a planet is habitable. They don’t consider in these news articles whether the system is within the Galactic Habitable Zone.
Best,

Hello, Professor Gonzalez, thank you for reading my e-mail, it’s a privilege, I have a fan page http://www.sacra-pizza-man.org/privilegedPlanet.html
May I inquire, does the science behind this page http://www.foxnews.com/science/2013/04/18/perfect-planets-for-life-telescope-sees-distant-worlds-not-too-hot-not-too-cold/?intcmp=features include consideration whether or not the described stellar systems are within the galactic habitable zone?

Didn’t Kryptpn circle a red sun?
Send them a message. We have open borders and our government gives away freebies. After 500 years they'll figure out a way to come visit us.
