NASA Hits The Exo-Planet Mother-Lode

1700+ total in the last 20 years. And in the latest batch, more that are Earth-sized and located in habitable zones:

NASA announces 'mother lode' of new planets: 715

I like this quote from Arthur C. Clarke:

''Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not - Both are equally terrifying''

Thoughts?
