What do you guys think of the new planet earth that was discovered last week?
It’s been theorized that in the early formation of the solar system, solar wind from the sun stripped most of the gases off of Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars leaving a rocky core behind on each planet, with only a thin or no atmosphere. This just confirms that the process that created Earth is a normal phenomenon that happens fairly regularly throughout the galaxy. I’m still scratching my head wondering why SETI hasn’t picked up radio transmissions from dozens of planets by now. Either way, I believe it’s only a matter of time before we develop telescopes which can detect chlorophyll on these other plants, and do indeed find other green worlds.
