I knew there was a solar system like ours! A few days ago astronomers think that they've found evidence of an alien solar system around a star close enough to Earth to be visible to the naked eye. They say that 3 planets are probably orbiting a sun called Epsilon Eridani! It is very "young"
because it is "only" 850 million years old. Our sun is a lot older, almost by 3.8 billion years! The good thing is we can see it with the naked eye. The bad thing is it's 63 million miles away from the Earth. There are many similarities between both of the solar systems. One of them is that Epsilon Eridani is 5 times as young as our sun. Another similarity is that their asteroid belt is 280 million miles away from it's sun, just like ours! There's also a third ring of icy objects extends billions of miles beyond Epsilon Eridani, resembling the so-called Kuiper Belt of mini-planets outside of Pluto! i wouldn't be surprised if there will be life there in a few billion years!

*The Misery of War*
War
Deadly, destructive
Fighting, killing, dying
Conflict, annihilation, injuries, deaths
Crying, screaming, regretting
Damaged, haunted...
