All this hoopla over explanets makes one wonder if most people realize we have absolutely no way to get to any of them. I'm betting that we will have catalogued hundreds of human compatible planets long before we have the means to visit any of them.

I doubt if we will find any planets that could support our human form of life. Too many variables, perhaps a dozen or more, that have to be carefully balanced.

I hope one day that we can see the planets in a system. we can learn so much more if we could see ( in detail ) the planet. We may even get luckey and see there is life on one....

Makes you think.

I am especially interested in the OGLE exoplanets!

Most of them seem to be gas giants (runs in the family) :)

According to some sources there is in fact one planet belonging to another star directly visible on the star maps.

Apparently this planet is a giant stone planet having a yellowish color. I once went to the co-ordinates given using www.sky-map.org and had a look at the object myself.

Unfortunately I do not have this information available to me right now, so re-locating this object probably would be somewhat difficult.

have you ever considered that spamming threads with your nonsense is completely pointless. Have you considered not spamming the forums with your delusional nonsense. I understand that English as a second language is not as easy as it looks but you have to understand that you are way off topic regardless of the thread you post in

I don't know where you get your information but there are no planets orbiting another star that are visible with current telescopes and especially not to the naked eye.

Bob Knut sees actresses that desire him for 10,000 miles away. I'm pretty sure he sees what he thinks he sees.

Thanks for saying that!

Anyway, you are supposed to be learning a couple of thing through your life.
(Generally speaking).

What you are able to learn, you either read, hear or are getting thought about by someone who are telling you the specific words (at school, for example).

When you get older, you always will be curious about certain things of your interest, always wanting to know and learn more about one or more particular subject(s).

When you finally are starting to get old, you finally leave Earth bound for another destination probably a little more wise and knowledgful than when you once was born.

This is really the meaning of life. It is full of experiences, both good ones as well as bad ones.

Just because we can't currently hop in a space-taxi and warp there doesn't mean the technology isn't within our reach.

If somehow we identified an extrasolar planet within our neighborhood (in galactic terms), and knew for sure it could sustain life - something impossible currently but hopefully not for long - the technology we'd require to build a colony ship and travel there wouldn't necessarily be impossible for us. Sure, it'd be the biggest undertaking of human-kind to date, and there would need to be enormous drive behind such a project for it to get 'off the ground' so to speak, but who knows what we will do when we get poked hard enough by the conditions we're creating on our home planet. Maybe it will be the only choice left to us.
