PLANETQUEST Anonymous 07/05/11(Fri)22:15 No.1 http://planetquest.jpl.nasa.gov/news/planetVulcan.cfmAstronomers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory have recently concluded that the upcoming planet-finding mission, SIM PlanetQuest, would be able to detect an Earth-like planet around the star 40 Eridani, a planet familiar to "Star Trek" fans as "Vulcan." 40 Eridani, a triple-star system 16 light-years from Earth, includes a red-orange K dwarf star slightly smaller and cooler than our sun. Vulcan is thought to orbit that dwarf star, called 40 Eridani A. Delete Post [File Only] Password - wakaba 3.0.7 + futaba + futallaby -
