From a technical point of view I know that there are two teams searching for exoplanets around Alpha Centauri [1]. Hopefully this means that the other team will be able to provide evidence that correlates this find. From a human point of view, I'm in the southern hemisphere and we will have clear skies. Alpha Centauri is still high above the horizon at this time of year. Tonight, I'm going to take my two kids outside and point out Alpha Centauri to them. I'll be able to tell them about it. Tell them, that now we know, part of what’s there. Tell them, that there is likely other worlds. Worlds more like ours orbiting that tiny, almost insignificant spark of light.
