Isn't that Xenu's planet? It will be cool to get more info about that planet, too bad it's so far away.

Well, I'm going to take the intiative and formally pronouce this as the planet Normy.
Forget Kepler 22-b, it is now the planet Normy. -On Planet Normy, the 747 will be the vehicle of choice. Since this planet is 2.4 times the size of the earth, a 747 probably a good idea. ONLY 600 light years away? Somehow, I suspect that my human body will never set foot on this planet. N! |

Too bad we're only seeing what it was like 600 yrs. ago. Could be vastly different today, maybe even gone, host star could be a white dwarf or on its way to becoming a red giant by now.

Ooooohhh... bad news for you. I took the initiative and pronounced that local area of space part of the cstreit economic enhanment initiative. Regardless of your presumed residence on this planet, you now owe $1,500,000,246,231.21 in property tax to me,er, I mean my company.

Only 600 light years huh? Yep, that's not too far in the grand scheme. But dang, that's really, really far.
5,878,625,373,183.608 miles (5.8 trillion) is how far light travels in one year. Now multiply that by 600. I don't even know what that number is!
