There are alot of planets discovered and yet to be discovered that probably "resemble" earth.
I'm leaving it up to God to make those decisions!
They just might be like us. Maybe!
What if they started like we did but there adam & eve didn't sin but then they wouldn't be orbiting a red dwarf
Wow that would nice if they looked like us,there sun is older does make them millions of years older and smarter
Yeah! They maybe our soulmates.... jk.
Very similar indeed.
Sure Would be nice to meet our neighbours,
I wonder if the sentiment would be shared.
(given the way a lot of us treat ours). so lets hope these stellar fellows don't watch our news media
Have a Great Easter
This latest one the media is making ballyhoo about is about 500 light years away. Consequently, unless someone breaks out a usable warp drive engine and builds a ship to bring us there in a reasonable time period I would postpone my excitement even if we suddenly start picking up their broadcast equivalents of Game of Thrones. I find it kind of similar to seeing a photo of a really pretty girl who I'd like to meet, then reading the caption underneath and learning it was taken in 1882. Kind of useless.
Should also be pointed out, there is (due to the lack of UV emissions from a red dwarf) no blue in the sky on such a world. There is only IR light, so red everything. Also even if habitable on one side, the world may be tidally locked with just one side facing the sun. Extreme temperature variations between the sides would be probable there. Red dwarfs tend to flare now and then. Big flares. Not sure such a world could keep it's atmosphere for long in the face of such flares.
Frankly I would postpone my interest until we find a 'class M' planet orbiting a class G star like our own. I am unaware of any such being found yet. And of course, even then, we have the problem whatever we see will be a really, really old picture of someone who lived very, very far away.
Not it doesn't have to look like us to be intelligent.
However, it might help if it looks like something we can identify as life as we know it.
