  • in the near future with a large optical telescope in space, we will find out the composition of the atmosphere's of planets like this one and Gliese 581c. But...At 20-40 light years it will be a little difficult to send a probe unless we figure out how to bend space time like gravity does. If someone is listening on these planets, they know we are here now. Keep your ears open. 100k or more of these in just our galaxy.

  • once man behaves they'll get a starter pack
