Glad to be back.
Thats awesome, now to prove whether or not we have neighbors is the next step.
Some areas around a red dwarf system are habitable depending on distance from the star. Of course this is theoretical since man has never set foot on a planet other than our own besides the moon.
How cool would that be though to have found another habitable planet? It could start a new space race and a new generation of junior astronaut's.

Earth has one other confirmed natural satellite and one that has yet to be confirmed. That might be what you are talking about. The one that was confirmed is named Cruithne.
Smeg!

Maybe they'll name the planet Krypton?
Red Dwarf?!?
I haven't thought of that show for years!
lmao... I love Red Dwarf
GJ 667Cc: that's a really cool discovery. Interestingly, even though it is 4.5 times bigger than earth, it's believed to be less dense. So the gravity on it may only be 1.3-1.7 times earth gravity. We could potentially go stand on this rock!
There's some gravitational anomalies in the ort cloud that suggest there is a "planet X" or possibly even the sun having a very small companion star (most starts in the universe are binary pairs), but neither have been observed. There's something else out there but no one knows what yet.
