http://www.livescience.com/55868-closest-earth-like-planet-proxima-b-discovered.html Sure, it's a bit tidally locked, but with a Red Dwarf that's not too bad. It's reassuring to know that there's another planet for us next door for when this one goes to poo poo. Nerve staples for everyone !!

Gaians/Planet Cult were great because you didn't even have to bother building yourself a big expensive endgame army, you could just flood the earth with a literal plague of locusts subjecting your enemies to brain-death by psychic torture at the hands of a swarm of weaponized insects in the name of harmony with Planet

I just checked and it would take New Horizons 78,000 years to get there !! WTF ? I thought that was the fastest thing we had flying ? These numbers are totally unacceptable ! This is going to be way harder than crossing the Atlantic or circumnavigating the globe, isn't it ? Although that was considered impossible for 100's of years too.A "maybe" then ?

We should shoot something at it. Either a big genetic cum shot, or a nuke. idc.

I think we should call new earth farth, and then if we find another one call it garth and so on. Unfortunately we missed out of barth and darth which were both good names, but yeah

It's lamentable we was only born in time for Dank memes. I am holding out hope that earth is invaded by a spacefaring species and we're all enslaved by 2100.

A brave little theory, and actually quite coherent for a system of five or seven planets -- if only we lived in one.
