Geeze...for a minute I thought this was a story about Elliot Spitzer having developed an “interest” in Hollywood child stars.

Within 1300ly of us these should be similarly metal enriched stars, possibly 2nd or 3rd generation, thus capable of sustaining at least microbial life in their albeit somewhat distant futures. And if one or more of them is a G2V system, God knows, maybe technological life might have a chance therein, given how the galaxy evolves over the next several billion years.

Well if they do it’s going to take a very long, long time to get there. The Orion Nebula is home to the ‘’Trapezium’’, a cluster of four very bright, white-hot stars at the center. I’ve seen loads of time from my backyard.
