Our path is now clear. Devote all of humanities resources into a spaceship to get to this planet. Once we arrive, set a stable orbit, and then destroy the surface in a gigantic nuclear inferno, just to be safe. You can never be too safe.

We should irradiate the subsurface of Europa first. That one is actually withing striking distance. and further more why do i even need a sig? |

Throwing this out there:
Who is to say ALL life grows in our little goldielocks zone? I think its fairly safe to say that any race that grows up in some type of temperature zone will assume that temperature zone is 'perfect' for growing life in...
Thus, I am proposing that we should irradiate all planets we find, not just the ones we THINK are habitable

It's not so much about "all life in goldilocks zone" or such, but more about liquid water, because of its unique properties.
Obviously there's plenty of room for life to exist elsewhere - Europa, and more recently, Mars, for example. However it seems far more likely that these (almost certainly) bacterial life forms would share a common ancestor with Earth's. Whether life was blasted off Earth's surface through impacts, or was planted there by the same extraterrestrial source that seeded it here (NOTE: NOT aliens, not intelligent beings at work).

Originally by: Atomos Darksun liquid water
Yes, liquid water. Something that we WATER BASED humans cant live without.
Lets propose here for a moment that we have a different type of species, one that evolved (or was intelligently designed, if you must) on a planet without liquid water. Would they still require liquid water?
What I am saying here, is that I do not believe liquid water means anything at all. It is not unique, except to US.
edit 120 trillion miles is a lot of AUs. I wonder how long itd take to probe down something that far away

Fixed that for you.
We'll be able to genetically modify human beings to breathe carbon dioxide centuries before we get a ship to that planet.

They'd still have to be on the inner planets shielded by a number of outer preferably large planets to sweep most comets and asteroids bound to come their way.
The gravity of a sun only goes so far so the lifespan zone of a system would be roughly the same, water or not, considering the very real E.L.E factor on a less shielded planet.

Maybe centuries from Earths viewpoint, but get a spaceship near the speed of light and time for those onboard slows down relative. So either way, a one way trip isnt out of the question

All Carbon based life - all life discovered to date, requires water. Not all even requires sunlight but all requires water.
Will they discover life that isn't carbon based? No idea - but I wouldn't think it to be too likely.

Aside from that, our own temperature can be reached at different distances from the sun depending on the qualities of the planets atmosphere, for one thing.

Edited by: illford baker on 30/09/2010 23:11:08 the planet is about 20.4 lightyears away, with a nuclear powered project orion achieving 10% lightspeed, we can be there in only 240 years!!! although, if we ramp up antimatter production and research a lot and use antimatter to power project orion, it will reach about 80% lightspeed, and we can be there in only 25.5 years! its within reach people! the only obstacle is our own inability to stop fighting long enough to do this!

"..."The chances for life on this planet are 100 percent," Steven Vogt, a UC professor of astronomy and astrophysics says. "I have almost no doubt about it"..."
These fields don't require actual math? 100% sure and almost no doubt?

Red Dwarf star means stable for a long time. So the habitable zone should be rather constant, good news for finding complex organisms. ----------------------------------- New Eden Chronicles: Prime, Fanfest 2010 |

Edited by: Elukka on 01/10/2010 06:35:07 Red dwarfs are also the most common type of star and finding a bunch of interesting planets around your average run of the mill star is good news for finding more of them everywhere.
There will be some interesting implications for the Fermi paradox if we start finding habitable planets around every other star...

It's when we start finding the stargates we have to worry. One McGyver per universe is quite enough!
