Intergalactic, Planetary. Planetary, Intergalactic.
“NASA’s Kepler mission has confirmed its first planet in the “habitable zone,” the region where liquid water could exist on a planet’s surface… The newly confirmed planet, Kepler-22b, is the smallest yet found to orbit in the middle of the habitable zone of a star similar to our sun. The planet is about 2.4 times the radius of Earth. Scientists don’t yet know if Kepler-22b has a predominantly rocky, gaseous or liquid composition, but its discovery is a step closer to finding Earth-like planets. “
— NASA found a new planet sorta like ours. What are you naming your plot? (We all get new plots of land in this made up scenario on account of how big the joint is and how little we have left ourselves around these parts. Pioneering.) Mine will be a straight-up ripoff from Auntie Mame: Upson Downs. I’ll also be changing my name to Upson, I guess.
