Heaven? ..........

.................  or just  another planet we can "discover," "claim," or conquer after weve finished abusing and destroying this one.  

Scientists reported today that the star 55 Cancri has a complete solar system -- five planets, in almost circular orbits, at least one of which seems to be in the star's "habitable zone," where temperatures are likely to be right for liquid water to exist.
Then they did the math. They concluded that one of the planets is in an orbit about 72.5 million miles from the star, taking 260 Earth days to circle it once. It's therefore closer to its host star than the Earth is to the sun (93 million miles) -- but they said that is a promising sign because 55 Cancri is slightly fainter than the sun is.
"This object, would have a very temperate climate. It would be a little bit warmer than the Earth, but not very much."    Full article here.
