Hey all,

I am sure most of you checked out that pretty movie from the NASA site

already. Just in case you missed it:

Heh, I just posted a thread over in Physics and Astronomy about this discovery, though I didn't link directly to the eye candy as you did here ;)

I'm not sure what a good source for binary star orbits are... we're missing Gamma Cephei, and surely we'll want to implement this system (but then again I'm biased towards planetary systems as being the most interesting).
