Modeling a Habitable Planet at Centauri A/B
[image: Modeling a Habitable Planet at Centauri A/B] Why is it so difficult to detect planets around Alpha Centauri? Proxima Centauri is one thing; we’ve found interesting worlds there, though this small, dim star has been a tough target, examined through decades of steadily improving equipment. But Centauri A and B, the G-class and K-class central binary here, have proven impenetrable. Given that we’ve found over 4500 planets around other stars, why the problem here? Proximity turns out to be a challenge in itself. Centauri A and B are in an orbit around a common barycenter, angle... read more

If the inflation rate was still calculated the way that it was back in 1980, it would be over 15 percent right now. We are already experiencing the sort of painful inflation that Americans were forced to endure during the Jimmy Ca... read more
