And it's only 150 light years away! We can get there in, what, a month at Warp 9? What're we waiting for?

Yes, I know we've known about gas giants for years now...

And if your a major caracter you could do it in a single ad break (unless of course you've set the interphase intermix the wrong way, then it would only take 40 minutes or so)

I can't wait untill the Terrestrial Planet Finder is launched. It's a series of space telescopes equipped with tech. that can lower a star's glare by a factor of one-hundred-thousand allowing Earth-sized planets to be seen. I heard that it's supposed to launch at 2015 or so. I can't wait!

It's really the aliens. MIB is but a pawn in their hands (or paws, or claws, or tentacles, or wings, or fins).

You know, an interesting idea occured to me. What if we're all aliens, and MIB is the only human?
