I have very low expectations for NASA announcements. Been burned too many times. These announcements are usually all hat and no cattle. They are mostly intended as PR to attract attention and raise the profile of the agency. IMO

I figure I start now since I'll be at work. It will be very interesting in what they say..


It could be nothing or it could be yuge..


Who knows, but just think in 20 years we have advanced greatly in finding planets outside our solar system. Just wait until the James Webb Space Telescope goes up.


Now we need to find a system that who mess of planets that is earth mass or close to it so we can terra form a whole system. Unless it is Earth like.

They found a planet millions of miles from here that maybe can support life.  :shrug:


Something like that.


If they have a join presser with little green men, that would be cool.

It's not going to be the two biggies - alien life, or an extinction event coming at us. The President would hog those.

If we ever get the extinction event warning, I fully expect whoever is president to resign in favor of Morgan Freeman immediately before the announcement.

Certainly promising on the odds alone. Going to make a few waves in the the planetary formation models though - thats a high number of smallish planets by any modelling.

Seven Planets around TRAPPIST-1

7 earth sized planets ups the interesting factor based on the ability to spot them from 40 light years out alone. It means we're getting better at finding them.
