Is there another Earth out there?

Is there another Earth out there?

According to astronomers, about half the planetary systems may have worlds where people could live. Current technology doesn't allow telescopes to see far enough for us to study these planets. However, in 15 years or less, we should have an answer.

Do you believe humans will ever inhabit another world? With the current threats of global warming and overcrowding, would you consider leaving Earth? If we colonised another planet, who should be allowed to go? How would we build civilisation from scratch? How could we prevent another global-warming catastrophe? And does this mean there may be aliens after all?

    Oops, make that Andromeda..,. Milliions of inhabited planets -mainly inhabited by moaning negative 'posters'.
    Read 'Space" by James Michener. Earth was taken over by aliens, who treated the inhabitants with great solicitude. Someone managed to translate what appeared to be their Holy Book - 'To serve Man.'
    Turns out it was a cookery book...
