    I love it but you'll be surprised how many people think space exploration is a waste of money. Usually small minded individuals with no vision for the future.

    My only disappointment is we really haven't advanced much with new propulsion systems. Still using archaic chemical rockets.

    I think they land them on one of Jupiters moons, likely do same with Saturn and Uranus

    It's not the first one, is it? I thought they've been doing that for many years already.

    It is fascinating but i asked myself: even if we find them, we cannot reach them by any mean, maybe we never will. So what good is to find new solar systems...

    Life was more fun when we were exploring space and not redistributing income.

    When was That? I would like to look up the tax brackets, maybe we can revert them back to that time.
