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. ;_;

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.

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!
