Exoplanets are fun things. Earthlike exoplanets are a more fun thing.
...Of course, even going at light speed, it's still gonna take 1400 years before we ever set foot there. ;_;

Play my games!
The ArrrPG - A game I made about being a pirate. This be a first draft, matey! Though it plays just fine, clap yer eyes on th' eventual Revised an' Expanded Edition and you'll be pleased, by thunder!
Nakama: A Card Game of Magical Girls - A completely un-playtested card game about being a magical girl.
Well, excuse me while I defy all laws of logic and common sense and do it anyway.

Regardless of our chances of ever getting there, the simple discovery of this is amazing. It's a great time to be alive, with the scientific advances we've made just simply compounding on each other all the time, with new things being discovered every day.
Last finished Pokémon game: Shield
Other games: Skyrim Special Edition (Switch), Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Switch & PS4), Okami (Switch & PS4)
Other gaming goals: completing a Living Pokedex (minus some event Pokes) and going through at least 1 game per generation

Exactly what Wolf Bird stated; just the discovery alone and what we could possibly learn from it is amazing in it's own right. Is there water? How similar is it to Earth?
So many possibilities!
