Nearby Star Could Host a Baby Solar System

This stuff always amazes me. About 20 years ago when I hung out with astrophysics geeks, we were just on the cusp of being able to be in a position to start identifying exoplanets.

Now we find them all over the place, surrounding stars we never thought would be able to have them. Hell, I think the estimates for the number of planets which would exist was vastly smaller than what we know now.

The universe is far more vast and complex than we've ever guessed... and we just keep finding new stuff. And that's friggin' awesome.
