Subject: [GZG] Picture Perfect Planet

Well over 200 planets around stars other than the Sun have been 
detected, including several multi-planet systems.
I guess most of you know this site:
http://exoplanets.org/
Some interesting news there (and enough strange configurations for Full 
Thrust Scenarios)

In latest developments:

It is now also possible to take pictures of such planets (if astronomers

are lucky):

Though the planet, wirh a temperature of 1800 K, is not exactly a place 
to send a "wish you were here" postcard from (well, maybe to dear enemy.

Greetings
