I don't know what your problem is, that sounds downright balmy to me.

I don't know if it's a problem on my end(virus?), but now when I click on the link it flashes up the article then jumps to a msn - weather site (adelaide - so it's picking up where I live). Funny in a way, the weather on planet X (can't read the name in the time before it jumps) - is hot, damn stinking hot. The link was working around ten minutes a go.

They named the planet Kepler-78b. Such a melodious name.

As far as colony cost estimates go, Can you go above 9000? :p
