Article: New 'super-Earth' found in space

BBC NEWS reports: "Astronomers have found the most Earth-like planet outside our Solar System to date, a world which could have water running on its surface. ... The planet orbits the faint star Gliese 581, which is 20.5 light-years away in the constellation Libra."

I wonder how long it would take us to get there from here?
