With the recent Breakthrough Starshot initiative, interest in the Alpha Centauri System has been growing. This mod takes a different approach to most planet mods, as typically the bodies added are insanely far away and require MAJOR planing to simply make it there, let alone explore. Instead, this sets you in the Centauri star system to explore from there. The planets and stars of Alpha Centauri are all sized to their (possible) real life counterparts. Only one of the bodies (Kelvin/Bc) is known to exist in reality, a great deal of artistic license has been used to with the others. The entire system is stable in N-body simulations upwards of 1500 Earth years. In the interest of my sanity in writing the configs I did not call the planets Ab, Ac. I have named them after popular explorers, scientists and physicists that led to the exploration of the stars.
As the Pale Red Dot and ESA have released their preliminary findings I have modeled Von Braun and Armstrong to conform to the findings.
