    The Verge[^]:

    That brings the total number of verified exoplanets from Kepler to more than 2,000 — more than doubling the amount spotted by the spacecraft.

    I still kind of prefer the one we're on

    Only "kind of" as there might just be a really cool one out there. You know, a planet with red racing stripes, or Ego the Living Planet...

      More than 2000 is overkill. We only need one planet to send the liberals and muslims to.

        Seriously, that comment was unnecessary. This isn't the soapbox.

          Yeah, but JSOP's got to keep up appearances.

                    Sarcasm and humor ain't always popular. I make no apologies.

                      So are you a muslim, or a liberal? Or are you objecting to ruining an as yet untainted planet?
