It is my understanding the closer to the center of the milky way, life (as we know it) is likely not possible. It turns out the center of galaxies are very violent places.Interesting too further out life (as we know it) is also unlikely as further out is not violent enough. Seems we are in the sweet spot. LOL,

How do they know it was a 2 star system? It takes millions of years supposedly for a change such as the one described to take place and we have only been astronomers for about 500-600 years. Not to mention the fact that those two particular stars would have to have been studied specifically for some reason out of the trillions of stars out there.

Well; I wouldn't recommend buying realestate in that neighborhood.
