The universe is filled with Earth-like planets



The earth is just a pale blue dot compared to the universe. By age, the universe is 13.7 billion years old but our earth is 4.5 billion years.
Since space and time are both interacting parameters, we may be very insignificant in space but NOT in space/time.
The discovery of abundant Earth-sized planets have given hope that we may be able to witness life in these planets in the near future with the invention of large aperture space telescopes.
The Copernican Revolution continues!
