Exoplanet system discovery in space

Postby Silver_Surfer1 » Tue Aug 24, '10, 9:17 pm

A planetary sytem containing perhaps 5 planets orbiting a star has been discovered in space:

I wonder if there is anyone, or any life thing, living on any of those planets?

There has to be other life out there cause if you think about it we can't be the only intelligent life in the universe. Maybe those planets have different ways then we do. Who knows, maybe even Magic exists there lol. That would be real cool, if it was like Star Ocean and we one day ventured out and went to those planets and discovered new life on them. Oh how I would love to go.

I doubt there is life on those particular planets. The article says they're all within orbits equivalent to Mars, so it is possible, but I think that would make the planets too close together for optimal conditions. Still, it would be neat if there is something living out there.
