Have you heard the morning news? Scientists have located a planet, from their vantage point in the Andes, which appears similar to Earth (ie, it looks like it has water). Other factors are very different - it's bigger, has a smaller & dimmer sun, and rotates around its sun in 13 days! I would think that would make for some pretty significant differences, but the experts claim it may have a climate not unlike ours & may support life. Wonder when realtors & developers will start laying claim

Anyway, here's a link: http://www.enn.com/today.html?id=12649

How interesting Jen! I will be curious to see how much attention this gets in the coming years. I wonder when they will actually get a chance to see the planet instead of just making calculations.
