I find it scary it's only 4.3 light years away. If they can manage 1/10 the speed of of light, they can reach us in just 43 years.

- rplnt 14y ago1/10 of the speed of light is still pretty fast. Helios[1], the probe that holds the speed record from all our spacecrafts travaled at 252 792km/h. That's still less than one 1/400 of the 1/10 of the speed of light. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helios_probes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helios_probes
