As to the Kepler mission…I didn’t think we’d discover planets around other stars in my lifetime, much less earth-like planets around other stars. If we were to find one, I could die a happy man. If we were to find a way to send a probe to one at something near the speed of light (or as near as we could get) I would be ecstatic.

Large gaseous planets have been detected in other star systems.
