Hopefully, one of the three exoplanets will have water. But 235 trillion miles is a bit far to plan a visit!

Fair enough point davidc4430, but they weren't looking for a specific planet, they were scanning the (estimated) billions of planets in our galaxy. It's similar to looking for a single needle in a haystack Vs looking for and examining 1000 needles in a haystack, one by one.

Oh right, Malaysian Airlines 370.

 

That was terrible- the most fatalities..but not the most recent.
