Quick...must...make...knuckles drag harder












Kepler spacecraft with 95 megapixel camera

Hundreds of new planets have been discovered by Nasa's new space probe, sparking new hope of life outside our solar system.
Up to 140 of the newly-found planets are rocky and Earth-like containing both land and water, conditions which could allow simple lifeforms to develop.

This is pretty cool.
Yet, ironically, Know Nothing(ness), Teabaggery and fundamentalism (of every stripe) expands as the world shrinks.

Science has been their enemy all along.













UPDATE:
Apparently the scientist should have said Earth-sized planets instead of "Earth-like" planets.
