A bigger earth discovered? By Soon Qi Wei

        Astronomers have discovered a new planet which lies 42 light years away from our earth. Although it is seven times the size of our earth, scientist say that it is highly possible  for water to be present there, which would also mean that it is habitable. This could be a new scientific breakthrough as it could mean having other living organisms populating that planet.
              Personally, I believe this is a very important piece of information. If anything were to happen to our earth in the future, instead of perishing together with the planet, we could use advanced technology to travel to other planets which have suitable conditions to sustain life. With global warming and other global problems on the rise, this is a research that is definitely necessary worth investing in. As our earth is already so damaged by man, other alternatives must be sought out to ensure our survival if anything were to happen on our planet. This way, if the many laws and rules fail to protect our mother earth, we would still have another alternative.   Click here to view full article!!
