They always seem to find these planets... Then a little bit more research later and they find the planet is actually a ball of molten lava with a toxic atmosphere swirling in constant storms.

Yeah we live on the edge here. The bars here are so tough that if you walk in and ask for a Beer, you get a punch in the face

Such finds are exciting, but this is so far away that we can never get there. Not with current technology or any feasible technology in the next few hundred years. Warp speed doesnt seem to be possible as you cannot reach the speed of light. Ergo, this is just 'window shopping'.

None the less, hurrah for science.

Try a more "humanly" speed...
