This binary star system was the first to have it's distance from the Earth estimated. There is speculation about a companion planet, but this is yet to be confirmed. The article seems fairly complete, so I am wondering what else needs to be done. Any ideas?

- Good article, probably A class if I had to grade it. The data and references are first-rate, and the text, despite some jargon, is readable. I wonder if there is any further historical perspective to add: I see no mention of this pair of stars cited between the early 1800s and 1942. Such citations are difficult to find, but could help expand a perspective on the history of this star pair in the study of astronomy. It also could be further emphasized that 11 light-years is quite close to earth for stars. Shalom Hello 21:01, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you. I'll see if I can find anything of interest in the time frame you mention. (Note though that the text does mention it was discovered that this system is part of a moving group in 1911.) — RJH (talk) 16:12, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
