Life may have evolved on at least three planets within a newly discovered solar system that is 39 light years from Earth, it was announced last night.
So a mere 39 light years from earth...my math maybe wrong, but that would mean if we traveled to this solar system at 20,000mph, it would take us approximately 5,900 years to reach it. How the hell would we ever prove life on any of those planets?

Cause, NASA says so .... Last year they detected gravitational waves - Billions of years ago two black holes had sex and created gravitational waves . This year its this EXO planet BS .. No proof of anything , just observed bending light and articulated with animations ..They have to put something out to continue to get those billions ...

It would take a frick load longer than 5,900 years to get there if we traveled at 20,000 mph. Try 1.33 million years.

Not crunching the numbers, but I just know you are off by several hundred orders of magnitude here. At that slow speed, it would take a shite lot more than a few thousand years - possibly many millions if not billions.
