I mean I'm not trying to be an asshole, but it just isn't all that exciting.
HEY GUYS LOL, WE FOUND SOME STUFF! YOU LIKE IT! WE SWEAR WE'RE USING YOUR MONEY THE WAY WE SAY WE ARE! LOOK AT THIS CONCEPTUAL ARTIST'S RENDITION!
-signed, overpaid nasa guys lying and redirecting funds to secret black projects
I know man those artist renderings are fucking RIDICULOUS.

It literally says "NASA TELESCOPE REVEALS" and there are NO PICS. In that article. No fuzzy blurry shit, no data or any shit to look at that's 'real'.

Thing is, this whole "exoplanet discovery" is making me feel like they're going to use this as an excuse to start some new kind of exploration. Almost like these planets will be what one of the next major space missions revolves around. And I'm suspicious. As usual.
