      well, the universe is pretty big, so I’d say that statistically, there has got to be somewhere like Earth out there. However, as I said, the universe is pretty big, so whether we’d ever find it is another question.

      Definitely 🙂 But I think we are too far away from any Earth-like planets to make contact, visit or even live there in the future.

      Absolutely! But as the others have pointed out, that knowledge is of limited use to us at this stage… Then again there was a time when it wasn’t all that helpful to know how to generate electricity, now look at us 😀

      We know of several planets that should be similar to Earth.
