So, somehow, this book has taken on a biblical overtone even though it is science fiction. I can't wait to see where it leads.

  Alpha Centauri

 

  Alpha Centauri, also known as Rigil Kentaurus, is the closest star system to Earth. It is only a little more than four light years away. It consists of three stars: Proxima Centauri and Alpha Centuri A and B. The name refers to the constellation of Centaurus, the Centaur. Unfortunately, it can only be seen from the Southern Hemisphere. My parents were on a cruise to South America one time and took a picture for me. That tiny dot has caused so much wonderment and excitement.
