    It's really sad living in a time period knowing Earth-like planets exist, knowing that someday humans will make it there, and knowing that it won't happen within my lifetime.

You could be born on the other side of the planet today and not have any hope of seeing your 15th birthday because you're a child soldier
      You could be dying face down in the dirt right now with your stomach torn out by bullets/swords/bears. Quit your bitching.

      That's 73 years to the nearest star, not Gliese c. Gliese C is more than 20 light years away. Meaning if we could build a spaceship that can travel faster than the speed of light, ( which would be a massive feat itself ), It will still take 1440 years to travel to this planet. So I'm not making any dinner reservations to this planet. :0)

      Not how it works. Surface gravity is a function of mass and surface area. A planet twice as heavy as earth and with twice the surface area would have the same surface gravity as earth does. A planet with half the surface area of earth and the same mass as earth would have twice the surface gravity. And so on.

      Problem #3: you would need a lot of money to provide for all the supplies on the ship
      Problem #4: the ship won't have enough space to store all the supplies so we would probably have to send more ship and that would cost more money....
      We can't really travel to another planet in about probably thousands or millions of years later. It would probably be impossible to travel in the speed of light. So thousands of years later we might have more advanced technology, and hopefully humans won't somehow screw up the Earth.

      For a planet's density to be 7 times less than the Earth would suggest the planet isn't a rocky planet but a gassy planet. Which means landing on surface would be next to impossible (assuming their is a harden core surface layer).

    It also poses a really interesting question to me, how would living in space affect human anatomy? Surely living in a zero gravity environment, at least part of the time, would greatly affect our musculature, or height, or muscle mass, or bone density, in fact it might completely alter what we look like now. Every creature is designed according to the environment in which they live and grow, it will be interesting to see what happens to humanity once we’ve left the earth behind. Just to give an example, creatures living on a place with low gravity would probably have elongated limbs with weak muscles, because they wouldn’t have the force of gravity pulling them down, and on the contrary, A creature living on a planet with high gravity, would be short and stout with very strong legs, and probably would not be bipedal, But would most likely have three or four legs. It’s a very interesting subject, what do you think?

    Two problems with the claim of this being "the next Earth". 1) It's 7x the mass of earth, which means you could hardly raise yourself off the ground. 2) It's orbiting close to a red dwarf star. Red dwarfs are known to regularly emit intense ultraviolet ray bursts. Which would be devastating to life as we know it. Also--it may be in a locked rotation around the parent star. Which means that one side would be roasted. While the other side would be as cold as Pluto.

We could do it as long as we found a way to suspend ourselves cryogenically or keep ourselves sane while we're awake.

    It's considerably easier to terraform Mars or even Venus than going to an exoplanet 20 light years away from Earth which we don't even have the technology to get there yet, let alone to adapt it to us.
    Besides, by the time we have the proper technology to travel 20 light years in a reasonable amount of time of let's say 1 month to 1 year, we will most likely already have obtained the means to terraform Mars or Venus.
    The distance is a very constraining factor here.

    The funny thing about space is that we're essentially looking into the past at these distances. If they were looking at use, they would probably still see the dinosaurs. Sure, the light hitting us now shows a planet that is the exact distances to support life, but it may not be the case. For all we know that star has died, and the planet along with it, and the light from that just hasn't hit us yet. We would have to find something MUCH MUCH closer, something we know is still around, that hasn't changed.

      Reeceeboy2410 you know what is even scarier is that we do send a message to that planet and it will take maybe 350,000 years for the message to get there but next thing you know we get a message from that planet but it took 5 years to get to us and the message said there is life here 😟

    All we need to do is find those wormholes, I actually had one up my butt.

    We would have to invent interstellar travel to get there. Even if we did get there it's not like the alien life forms that exist there would just let us settle. Yes I believe there is extraterrestrials there. It's arrogance to think that out of billions of galaxies, trillions of planets. Only Humanity evolved and came into existence.

      It's also unlikely that out of the billions of planets available the one we chose happened to have life, and if it did it's unlikely to be intelligent, and if it did it's unlikely they would be able to resist our war technologies (we reached the planet first so obviously we are the better ones). And even if this particulat planet out of billions happened to have intelligent life, it's unlikely that they will be there when we reach it. It's not a question of where but also when, humanity isn't that old and our existance on this planet which is 7 billions years old has been very insignificant in terms of time. It's safe to assume that a certain intelligent species will inhabit there home planet for a fraction of the planet's life time. Adding to the improbability that we will bump into aliens because there's no way we will reach them in the few tens of thousands years they will exist out of billions of years that their planets will. Taking all this into account, no we won't bump into aliens I assure you.

    Well in case the human race is in enormous danger (which it will inevitabely be) i think people wouldnt care about the money, they would just care about their lives.

      true for instance lets say a blackhole is going to encounter our solar system in oh lets say 100 years people would have to throw economics and their differences out the window and invent new technologies very quickly and build a suitable spacecraft to escape

      I think the biggest problem here is that we don't use teamwork (most of the countries across the globe) to build a huge and advanced spaceship. If we would create a Space Program where most of the Earth's countries are involved, then there would not be this "money problem", becouse every country will spend money on it, not only two or three countries.
      I doubt that that will ever happen, or maybe it will in a distant future, but why not use it now? U.S and many European countries having so big ego they don't want the rest of the world to help with space programs.
      "Oh look at us! We're rich, we send billions of dollars worth of satellites to the Earth's orbit, we got the technology!"-- but... "Buhuu, we don't have the money to invest on a advanced spaceship, its costs too much!"... Something like that!

    Too far away and 7 times Earth's gravity, thanks but no, we should rather try to save this planet.
    After all this pale blue dot is and may well be our only home.
