First "near earth sized" planet in the "goldilocks zone" discovered....  bigger than earth, we'd have to bulk up the muscle before trying to live there ... but it could be doable.

Kepler-452b is 60 percent larger in diameter than Earth and is considered a super-Earth-size planet. While its mass and composition are not yet determined, previous research suggests that planets the size of Kepler-452b have a good chance of being rocky.

While Kepler-452b is larger than Earth, its 385-day orbit is only 5 percent longer. The planet is 5 percent farther from its parent star Kepler-452 than Earth is from the Sun. Kepler-452 is 6 billion years old, 1.5 billion years older than our sun, has the same temperature, and is 20 percent brighter and has a diameter 10 percent larger.�

NASA's Kepler mission has confirmed the first near-Earth-size planet in the “habitable zone” around a sun-like star. This discovery and the introduction of 11 other new small habitable zone candidate planets mark another milestone in the journey to finding another “Earth.”

Time to put some pressure on the ALP before the conference.

I tweaked the email a lot to include other issues.

I want to be a proud Australian ... and I cannot be that while the ALP follows the race to the bottom on every issue, never bothers even trying to explain the progressive agenda which has decency and evidence on its side.

This weekend, members of the Australian Labor Party gather for their national conference. It's the most important event on the Labor calendar – delegates will be voting on the policy platform that the party takes to the next election. Policy in relation to people seeking asylum will be hotly debated. There’s been a fair bit of speculation that right faction delegates will push for the Party to adopt the Abbott Government's harsh (and potentia...

Not to mention the costs of the whole "terror" thing, the now never-ending escalatio, the  islamists playing into the hands of populist demagoguery by cynical politicians ....

When we could actually spend the money inspiring people about the human adventure, making people look to the heavens and see reality and beauty, not some bronze-age imaginary sky friend ...

I reckon it's great that a million minutes of historical video of newsworthy events from AP is being put up on youtube legally and organized properly .. but ... I cannot help think .... "historical documents" ... "never give up, never surrender" ... and "by grabthar's hammer, what an archive"

A delight - staff who know their books, make a good selection to have in the store, and are prepared to put the effort in to talk with the customer for long enough to help make a good selection ... and particularly good at figuring out the interests and reading levels of children. Whether it is asking the right questions of a one-off customer (such as my friends who visit), or keeping track of my child, and now grandchild, as they grow, this is the kind of service you simply cannot get online, no matter how many reviews you read.
