We need to send a probe there. We have the technology, we just don’t have the funding.
Earth II?
The Diggers won’t be happy to see us.

They are probably up to Clinton’s 4th term by now.
ahh..You can’t get there from here. You would have to last longer than Mom’s fruitcake to get a reasonable fraction of the distance there and you wouldn’t enjoy the trip.
I always heard the it has the wrong kind of star — not like our sun.

I truly hate the vacuous space articles that are being pumped out it seems daily about new planets, etc.
All of these articles are speculation and conjecture. I have never seen so many “may”, “might”, “could”, “perhaps”, “if” and the rest of the article goes on assuming all the coulds and ifs have been proven true.
These articles are more science fiction than science. They are wishing so damn for this stuff to be true, and can;t help themselves writing it as if it is.
I heard there was a revolt on Alpha C. ;’)

If I'm not mistaken, the Centaurus system is a system with six stars dancing nutzo orbits around each other. Two sets are inside the system and orbiting each other and the 3rd set is running outside of the system orbiting each other at the periphery.
THIS is the reason that it was always considered EXTREMELY unlikely that any of the Centauri stars could support a planet. They'd keep running over each others planets. Maybe not literally but gravitationally at least.
