Subject: Alpha Centauri Questions


Is it me or did someone finally find out whether the Alpha
Centauri star system has planets or not?

It seems to me that our planetologists and astronomers would
have by now examined our closest star neighbors and given a
thorough data stream.

I've searched the web and get bits and pieces of information yet
none that basically says:

"Yes Virginia, there are planets next door."

I noticed we're able to detect via 'gravitational wobble' the
gas giants around stars far more distant.

One report stated it was the proximity of that star system and
it's stars' luminosity that hampers investigation.

If any of you have data, please post.


Best,

Greg
