Scientists just found four small planets not too far from us, and they might be perfect for future space travelers. These exoplanets are the right size, possibly have the right conditions, and they’re just sitting out there, waiting to be explored. It’s like the universe dropped a hint: “Hey humans, pack your bags!” Colonization might sound like sci-fi, but these planets could be real candidates someday. Who knows — they might be our second homes in the future. Space just got a whole lot more exciting!
