Planet Around Alpha Centauri

While I’m posting stuff (I really do need to be more consistent. Was it Mark Twain that said the hardest thing in the world was actually keeping a journal?)

The European Southern Observatory has found an earth-massed planet orbiting Alpha Centauri (Earth Massed, but it is far too close to be within the habitable band).

Planets orbiting further out are possible, and the search is still ongoing.
