yep, they find 7 planets like earth 30 light years away from earth but they cant find a missing areoplane right here at home


It's 40 light years and it was aliens that took the plane to one of those planets. They're sitting back there with their finger up saying "come and get us suckers! Oh, that's right, you can't. You lose"

 

Seriously though, the planets are all close together. How cool would it be walking out the front door and seeing big planets in the sky every day, like the moon at night. That would be such a blast.

Plus, some of the planets might have rings like Saturn and be different colours. And, each planet probably has it's own moon/s. Yes it would be a breathtaking sight.

Apparently the planets don't rotate like ours so you would have to decide whether to live on the daylight side of the planet or the night side!!
