Re: NEMESIS

Hello Julia and list,
    Actually, if you look at the website for extrasolar planets, you'll find
after some catalog searching, that 6 of the 16 stars known to have planets are
binary or multiple star systems- or 37.5%! Upsilon Andromedae, which about two
months ago was disclosed to have three planets, is itself catalogued as a
multiple star system with a sunlike star, a red dwarf, and a close
spectroscopic binary!
    Two of six other systems suspected to have planets are also multiples,
which includes Proxima Centauri, the closest known star.  The late Robert
Harriman(?) of the Naval Observatory proved in the 1970's that planets can be
stable around binary stars.  Now, the planets  need only to be actually
observed and not determined from statistical analysis.
    As far as Nemesis is concerned-I'm working on a hypothesis that the sun
does indeed have one or more companions with a 13 million year periodicity,
leading to a climax at 65 million years on an evolutionary extinction scale.
