Astronomers: We could find Earth-like planets soon

Titan, a moon of Saturn, is very similar to Earth. I wonder how many more there are.

If we find another Earth, we sure will go and destroy it!
 
Read the title to the thread and I just YAWNED... what good is it to find an earth-like planet if we can't GET TO IT!
Space program is about 100 years behind schedule and it's only 52 years old. By all rights and intended purposes we should've already have a moon base and an outpost on Mars and have at least orbited Jupiter.
We have the know-how and the technological ability... just being too selfish and war-hungry to focus our energies and intelligence where it should.

Click to expand...

what good is it if we don't start the space program in the first place? :) that's why we started the space program decades ago! so that we can get to that new earth-like planet later on!
 
Is that so...I guess as long as we live, we may still discover to see if life does indeed exist on other Earth-like planets. Even if Titan the moon of Saturn is very earth like, I guess it could be our first to discover if life exist there so who knows...other earth like planets aka super earths are more than 120 trillion miles away in space.

Interesting how they said Titan have weathers, rocks, and rivers related to Earth...so there may be a slight possiblity that life is somewhere on Titan...but don't even know if there's even oxygen on Titan. If so, then it may have a different rate of oxygen than Earth's and it won't be enough for us to breathe so obviously may have to use oxygen masks or whatever.
