Can we get there? That is the most important thing for us to think about.
Looking for evidence of life on worlds like our own Earth. But it might take a few hundred thousand years to get there and that is a real issue.
Look at this and enjoy!
NASA announced the discovery of seven Earth-sized planets around a star about 40 light years away from Earth. All seven could have water, which is key to lif...

Here’s the problem with finding a “new world” capable of sustaining life: if we make it there, we will screw it up.

I try to be a bit more optimistic. Maybe we will evolve before we do ourselves in, Well, one can hope can't one?

I don't think there is a planet here in our galaxy the milky way that can support life. But according to some scientists, there could be some planet same as earth on other galaxies. I don't know if it has been proven yet though. It would be really cool if there is.

I think that the more we look the more we will find. Yes, it would be very cool if we found a planet that supports us.

@Alian123 , I have a nice positive site for you to take a look at.

Mankind will never achieve the quick speed of a spacecraft to visit other planets in other solar systems that may have life. It takes long enough as it is, sending probes to the planets in this solar system.

Well, that is true, for now, but think about it, there was a time when man was using cave walls to paint on and spears and rocks to hunt with. We have managed to discover things that are so tiny and also things that are so powerful like quantum mechanics and so forth that I believe we have the potential to one day find ways to travel faster and eventually maybe even go way beyond our galaxy. Not today, but maybe in thousands or millions of years from now or sooner, perhaps.
