I've read about rocky Kepler 186f few years ago. What really funny about this is just like knowing your dad impregnated a woman before your mom and gave birth to a good or bad child you have never seen before and you are eager to see him/her the meeting might/mightn't go smoothly. |

hamzeiy:As you probably know, there are billions of planet in the milky way alone never mind each galaxy. Therefore, scientists like to break things down into many clusters for simplicity. Pluto is no longer regarded as a planet but a dwarf planet due to her small size. For any 'body or mass' to be regarded as a planet it must: 1. Orbit the sun 2. Has enough mass to assume a nearly round shape 3 Has not cleared the neighbourhood around its orbit 4 is not a moon. Pluto failed number 3. 1 Like |

hamzeiy: There's something known as the Kuiper belt. Its icy bodies shaped like planets that are near to each other that actually forms a disc shape. It looks kind of like the rings (asteroid belt) around Saturn. They found there where many of Pluto looking like bodies near to each other that formed that. And once again, before an object in space could be considered a planet it had to fulfill some conditions. Pluto fulfilled most but missed out on one. Which is: Planets in themselves have the gravitational force around them either to pull objects in or sling object around it out (which is what is actually used to sling space probes further into space). Pluto cannot do that. So therefore Pluto is no longer considered a planet but a dwarf Planet. 1 Like |

semitunde: Semitunde, I have enjoyed all you've been writing but I find many of them to be closer to fiction than reality. Parallel universe and worlds are stuffs of Hollywood fiction movies. |

Jeromejnr: Lol. Well its too surreal ofcourse. You know, ants in your room cannot know or even imagine that there's a place called Australia, talk less of another set of ants living there. How will you let the ant know unless you take it there? And even if you do, will it still realise its environment has changed drastically. We know only what we are allowed to know determined by our mind power and maybe even with help from higher beings. Cos really, an ant may not know its being helped to Australia na abi. Who says, in terms of size, we are not even like ants, and our world is just a bit part of a table or chair for a much bigger being, just like atoms are parr of the make up of our own objects. Who says even those even those electrons are not another world on a super microscopic level we are yet to know about or understand. We know nothing abeg. 2 Likes |

I refuse to believe we are not significant in the universe semitunde. Unlike ants we are intelligent creatures living on a planet extremely suitable for our existence which forces the believe that it designed to match our needs. |

django1: But how do you know the ant does not think itself intelligent too? Before humans there were animals, both in the holy books and from evolution. You think at those times, those animals won't think themselves supreme? Our capacity to think is limited by what we know and can conceive as possible. How do you know the ant too doesn't think as such? Because we are bigger and have achieved more? We look down on their organisation and all, but we've not stopped to think that the very fact that we can be above them shows a possibility that another can actually be above us!

semitunde: Hmmm, no one can truly tell if ants have minds of their own but just follows intuition but in any case we all know ants are not capable of emotion (they don't mourn their dead, do they?) or have a sense of religion, all things that makes us humans and better than them, hence more intelligent. I suppose there are merits to your theories anyway, the universe is simply too gigantic. 1 Like |
