For those who may not be aware of this system there is an article on astronomy.com

Yes, see Grant Hutchison's near stars add-on. It includes the Epsilon Indi brown dwarf binary.

Thanks! but those files are for 1.3.1 and I have 1.3.0. Should I have to download a huge file again or is updating a short proces?

Celestia v1.3.1pre11 includes many updates to all aspects of Celestia since v1.3.0. However, if you just want to try the new functionality and don't care about the updated orbits, planet surfaces, etc., you can download just the executable.

The prerelease Windows versions of Celestia are in http://www.shatters.net/celestia/files/

The full 12MB installation is http://www.shatters.net/celestia/files/celestia-win32-1.3.1pre11.exe
Celestia.exe is available by itself in
http://www.shatters.net/celestia/files/celestia-win32-1.3.1pre11-exe.zip
which is only 746KB.
