New earth 20 light years away

[Dave M]

It's a good thing that by the 24th century we'll have warp speed!


But seriously, when you think about the advances we've had in the last century or so, it really makes you wonder what'll happen in the next 100 years.

Just think, in the span of less than 100 years, we went from horse drawn carriages to the internal combustion engine and cars, to airplanes and the space flight.

Ahh....no.... Our sun will become a red giant (which is when the Earth gets incinerated), then a white dwarf. It doesn't have enough mass to go nova.



A red dwarf star is smaller than our sun. Gilese 581 never had enough mass to be a yellow star like our sun.

Here's the other thing I was looking for. http://www.cnn.com/2007/TECH/space/0....ap/index.html I'd weigh 352 pounds there. Nooooo thank you!

Eh I was close...
