Gliese 581g

So I've lived my whole childhood as a lie? What will happen to all those addons with 581g?

This news is kinda scary considering that many other small earth like planets we discovered could just be periodic stellar activity.
 
Yea not sure what to do with my update for Gl 581 now. Since that's half the system gone I guess I'll just shift my attention to a different system.

I don't see why any other planets we've discovered would be threatened. 581g was always a questionable to unlikely candidate, and there was some debate about the existence of d, even. All of the Kepler discovered planets are considered certain as it used the transit method and was confirmed by a secondary transit, the ones that are not are considered Kepler Objects of Interest (KOIs).

The Kepler-186 system would be the one I'd make an addon for.
 
That and Kapteyn's star which I think I may go for both. I have Kepler 186 started kinda. Just their orbits and radii are in.

I was working on a system pulled from the depths of my scifi mind. Then I ran into problems trying to make an accurate surface image based off a map I drew.

I started working on kapteyns last week. Would you be interested in collaborating?
