I would like to take the time to wish all my readers and website visitors a Merry Christmas season filled with peace, love and joy. Now is the time to share your love, spread happiness and find peace with the people who matter the most to you.

It is the smallest and the best positioned to have liquid water on its surface — among the ingredients necessary for life on Earth. It orbits a star like the Sun 600 light years — that’s nearly 4,000 BILLION MILES — away in the constellation Cygnus. On a side note, a light year is the distance light travels in a year, about 6 trillion miles (10 trillion km).
