No, we are not alone.

Alf are you there? It's me Margaret.

No not really. Anyway, I just read an intriguing story. We all know there has to be some serious aliens running around among us. No, I am not talking about the landscaper at your work blowing leaves on your car. I'm talking ET baby =0)

 
Nasa says the Kepler is seeing some seriously amazing planetary layouts not too far beyond our reach. It makes you wonder, would these beings look like us? Are there some around us and we don't even know it. I'm reaching here, yes I know. But let your mind wander a bit...
A little snippet from the article to read :
Last month, Kepler reported a world only about 40% larger than Earth — a very big deal since most of the planets identified have been Jupiter-scale worlds. But that's nothing: among the latest candidates are 68 worlds about the size of Earth, including a handful that are no bigger than Mars. Five of these, moreover, lie in the habitable zone.
