Ron,
Do you have a link to that? I had not heard about the possible oceans. I would like to read it.

I would like a link to Ron... I have no idea what your are referring to (which mission). Seriously, I do not think we have any probes out there doing this mission you are talking about.

Now, if only I could figure out how to use this "force" to make the whole state of Tennessee fly by me on my third attempt at Vol-State (July). It is my second attempt solo.

Mike,

I don't have a link to it but it was in the paper here and on the news page of my home page some time back and there is a probe that was launched several years ago toward one of the closer areas they thought may have Earth like planets in it. I will see if I can find it , but I remember the pictures of the scientists standing around cheering and saying they thought they may locate 1 Earth type but 2 was beyond anything they had hoped for. And as I said, they will have to wait for some time until that probe is in a location that they can verify their first data.

Joe & Mike,

Here is a link to the page that will give you several other links to read about. I did have it incorrect about a probe as they are using a telescope right now. But they have found one planet and possible two that are considerable larger than Earth. I still think in one of the stories that I read a few days ago they said something about a probe that was launched just for this purpose.
