Hi Larry

Nice discovery. However 'near' 41 light-years might be in Galactic terms it's a long, long way in human terms. Even laser-sail probes would have serious trouble getting there in humanly meaningful time-spans - 130 years at 0.3 cee. Hopefully big telescopes like the OWL will be able to produce useful images of such systems.
