Awesome article about an "earth like planet" found 20 light years away. I wonder if it is inhabited, and if they are human like mammals...did they screw up as bad as us?

My favorite comment from the lot:
"Great. I'm stoked. Now, how many billions will this take away from education and infrastructure to provide a new pet welfare project for NASA and JPL engineers and science geeks so we can zip right over and see if there's water. Please... spare us all another useless space conquest, or get Bill Gates to finance it." - Stryke
I mean, because education doesn't involve teaching things we heave learned over centuries, mostly via exploration and science, right? ...Ooooh wait a minute.
