    Follow this link and be among the first of mankind to view a planet that orbits a sun not our own...

    My personal belief is that much good can come from mankind appreciating what surrounds us all, rather than obsessing upon the minor differences that lie within us.

    I hope when the children of my descendents are taught history, this will be our legacy; perhaps history will forgive our wars and hatred in comparison to the first real glimpse of worlds that offer infinite tomorrows.

    IIRC they showed some computer animated pictures of a planet on the news a couple days ago. I didn't catch the story though, was just flicking through the channels.

    IIRC it's a gas giant orbiting that sun...We still don't have a picture of a more...solid...earth/mars type planet.
