I'm a bit upset with Science for their current wording of some things.
I'm a bit upset with Science for their current wording of some things. "Super Earth"? Really, what will ever be found out there that's more super than what we have here? Earth absolutely has sisters out there, but what could possibly be better than Her? I get that super is more a reference to their size, but really? Science, please respect our Earth and don't label large rocks rotating around some distant star more super than what we have right here! I hate that term, it's offensive. I also feel science has it totally wrong with "looking for life on other planets". Let start acknowledging that it's the planet ITSELF that is alive, not what's living on it's outer skin. Science will never find life on a dead planet, OBVIOUSLY. Science should be looking for "Planets that are alive". Sorry OP, this has nothing to do with your post, the wording it used was appropriate. I do wonder, how can an atmosphere of He form? Helium commets? Must have been.
