That is so awesome. To think that we finally found a planet that is so like Earth. We may even be living there in twenty years. If human life can be supported on Kepler-22b, we can start all over again with no pollution and no wars. Maybe Kepler-22b is our future Utopia.

Although Utopia does seem nice, it's impossible for it to happen. Humanity is just a collection of primitive instincts such as anger and unfortunately we would not truly be human without them. Also, we can't live in a place with no pollution because we produce carbon dioxide. The greek poet: Thomas More once wrote a story named utopia where it was shown that trying to do that lead to a dystopian society which is socialism which doesn't work as shown in the Giver by Lois Low Lowdry.
