Remember when you are in suspended animation in a 235 trillion mile trip to the TRAPPIST-1 colonies
40 light years make it sound so much closer... :P

pragmatists caring about trade deals killed space exploration for decades
yeah, sure, it's not like scientific research at NASA costs money after all, and anyway, money is everywhere, no need to get richer and increase state's revenues to fund space program.

shuttle orbit speed is 18k mph. we've figured out how to go 200k mph. if we science it some more and reach 1 million mph, we can get there in around 2684 years. science that down so much that you get 100 years and we'll be traveling there the time we figure out how to do it. really, we need more mega computers I think to figure out the physics

Watching the NASA press conference, at 4:20 they say one of the planets in the habitable zone has strong signs of being water rich.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

What did you think my last two post were about?

3 are in the zone, not 1

Yes, but so far, only

Narrow view IMO.

Well, that's just what they have now. They will be doing much more in depth studies of the system with the Spitzer, Hubble and upcoming James Webb space telescopes.

At the 32:23 mark they say their working hypothesis is that these planets formed further out and migrated inward before their orbits stabilized. That means they formed in a very ice rich area, and should be water rich. They just don't know yet.

Ok. So we need gravity, composition of the atmosphere, and water content. Get on that space researchers.

BTW did some Walloon, Michael Gillon, find this thing? Was the Euro Space guys or was it NASA? Or some combination of the two?

And at least two tree tiles and two sheep tiles.

Settlers of Trappist-1. I would play it.
