The Solar Sisters

Keplar's search for exolanet's (habitable planets orbiting a sun) has discovered 200 subjects and counting outside of our solar system and some outside the Milky Way even. In the past week they've discovered a small seven planet filled solar system kinda like a shrunken version of our own. But best of all is the nine planet system with similar spacing between planetary bodies as our own. 

Earth 2 may very well sit out there somewhere. 

I find it so fascinating and mind blowing I must say. 

It actually makes me feel sick sometimes if I think about it too hard. 

We are so insignificant. Imagine if you had been born on a planet outside of our solar system and you looked out at the nights sky. Would you imagine that one of those shiny sparkles had a small dot on which a life form like ours was evolving? 

It makes my life seem all the more futile.
