    Farly interesting. To bad it's so far away we probably wouldn't find out anything about it in our life time though.

    Interesting.. by the time the probe gets there, all the people who sent it will all be dead. I would doubt there's life there, though.

    I offer $540 and a vouch for it.

    Thats really cool, there is probably life their and there is scientists and they have us on their youtube as well going on about how it has a similair gravity, etc. lol.

    Would be interesting if it does in fact have life. It would be even more so if it was as advanced if not more advanced then the human race.

    Sadly, with our current technology, it'd take an amazingly long time for a probe to reach there. It'd be really interesting to know more about it.

    I lol'd. The guy talks so enthusiatically like it's actually logical to think this can happen. And these are the kind of people that are college professors? /sigh

    With current technology I believe that a probe would take well over 50,000 years to reach a distance 20 light years away. So add a few more childrens.

    Oo I'd be thinking if anything they couuld do 20 light years in under 200.

    In the 70's they could get space probes to go .8c, im guessing they could get them faster then that now. Which means covering 20 lightyears in less then 40 years (unless I've sudenly started failing at maths, which would suck as I've got finals coming up), and initially the probe itself wouldn't need to return, but just send back information which would take 20 years.

    So well under 50 000 years I think.

    hmm "there are a lot of unknows" that made me think of pokemon :p

    on topic: prolly not much i'll be discoverd in my lifetime, but meh why not send the probe... i mean then ppl in 200 years know if theres life out there

    Easily liveable on the winter.. but the whole year? I dont even think the sun could be seen from that side? How depressing is that?

    -- And it would take a couple of decades with our current technology to get to that planet.

    I always imagine what there would be without earth, blank, what if we were just a dream? what if there was no world, there would be nothing? but that's impossible, and my head just stops thinking.
