Recently a planet has been imaged around a distant star.
The disc of some of the larger stars has been resolved.
The space telescopes have been succesful in accomplishing
this. It would be nice to get a close up of an Earth sized
planet or resonable reconstruction. It is fun to see Saturn
through a telescope. I wonder if we will have the technology
to be able to resolve these distant planets within a decade
or two. It would be interesting to detect a signal from outside
the solar system if they exist. Apparently in the seventies a
WOW signal was detected but nothing since to my knowlege.
I wonder if we have the technolgy to detect a signal or will
have it in a decade or two.
