Aliens - Are we alone?

OK a bit of bad luck in the timing but I had to smile when they were
banging on about how Kepler would be searching for Earth like planets
for many years to come the day after it was announced it had gone tits
up.

Well two of the four wheels needed to point it had broken and they need
three working, not totally screwed but in trouble.

LOL, it's all relative to the viewer surely.
