The whole Alpha Centauri System holds the potential to have a couple of habitable planets. Can you imagine what would happen if they did find one. The drive to get there would be strong. I suspect we would see huge leaps in technology towards getting there.

And finding one around a Red Dwarf would be great news since most stars are red dwarfs.
