Our new home, confirmed

There is 'an Earth' around our nearest star, scientists confirm

The planet, called Proxima b, is approximately 4.2 light years away. If it has water and oxygen, it could potentially be home to alien life

The planet, called ‘Proxima b’, has a mass of 1.17 Earths and is located in the habitable zone of Proxima Centauri, which the planet orbits approximately every 11 days, according to the new paper published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

I'm not keen on the idea of weighing 17% more

And f course we will need to conquor the aliens on their home turf .... https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/news/earth-exoplanet-space-universe-proxima-centauri-espresso-a9537626.html

if we move we need to go towards the center of galaxy, to many red dying stars out here that produce intense radiation

have a idea for new battery,that never needs a charge. nuclear high gamma waste.Surrounded by zeolite, and in cased in different lead shielding, air allowed in the recharge zeolite with nitrogen. we all know gamma and nitrogen make current /voltage.

We will wait till the highway is built. Probably would be a toll road with my luck.


Unfortuantly man will have to master much faster speeds safely in space to get anywhere that has any real potential. Apparently the human body does not tolerate long periods in space well either.

barry if we could use magnetic shielding, and activate our gene that lets us hibernate,less supplies needed for travel. faster than light travel we will need to make wormholes
