7 new Earth-like planets discovered in the TRAPPIST-1 Solar System;

If they're 40 light years away doesn't that mean they could be in habitable by now but the light that we received was from when they were inhabitable?

>>723314071
ATL niggas know no bounds

>>723314071
We can't even fly to Mars yet, you sensationalist pricks. We won't benefit from this discovery in our lifetimes.

>>723314283
??? the image we see is 40 years old.

>>723314283
>in habitable and its antonym inhabitable
nigga what language do you speak

>>723314283
yeah but 40 light years is nothing in cosmic measure of time when were talking about the life spans of planets and suns

That's what they said about going to space and the moon, etc., etc..

If they were inhabitable after 40 years. Since it takes 40 years for the light to reach us. Thus light-years.

Uh, unless they became extinct within the 40 years it took for the light to get to us, they're probably still there.

>>723314283
40 light years means what we are looking at is only 40 years old..
now if it was 40,000,000 Light years then yes.

False alarm guys, no one get excited by the discovery, turns out none of us get to go there.

Not really. No one was saying that. They were saying "we need to do it faster than the Russians can".

Wrong. As in the time period of the late 1800's and even earlier. Dreamed it. Did it.

We've discovered hundreds of "habitable" planets at this point. Being excited about finding another is useless because we can't reach ANY of them.

There are closer systems and these idiots go for a far one

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

any radio signals confirmed yet? maybe they already heard us

Says the idiot who can't talk about them and hype about them.

Kek.

>>723314626
Also newsflash: we found those planets because the one we're living on is going to crap out on us VERY soon. So it doesn't matter if we're discovering new planets we'll be "able" to reach in hundreds/thousands of years. The planet we're living on probably won't even make it that long.

The fuck are you babbling about? Light from those planets takes 40 years to reach earth. What we're seeing now is an image from around the same time when Black Science Guy was fingering your mom behind the middle school gym.

the planet will, our race on the other hand...
