Yeah, I’ve red that it does. :’) It’s a matter of how close in, and in the diagram that showed up in the THIRD topic about this discovery (this one is #2), there’s a nice illustration showing the distance as compared with our Solar System.

Only 490 light years away. So, if we send out a machine right now, and it averages 100,000 mph, it will get there when?OK, let's see: light travels at 186,000 miles per second, times 60 seconds in a minute, times 60 minutes in an hour, times 24, times 365, times 490...
Sorry, above my pay grade!
