In other words, somebody copied the text from the science fiction novel
and that is how Proxima b got it's properties.


Didn't H.G. Wells did the same thing with...Canals of Mars???

In other words...

H.G. Wells got ideas from
stealing it from the
'science guys'...

and now the 'science guys' are 
stealing their ideas from..
science fiction.


Yous people do soo much stealing from 
each other..that you don't even know how
to create a new kind of alien from outer space!

You lost your imagination...

all your aliens lookalike...


You cannot even imagine what a Real alien from outer space looks like.


yous got no imagination.


yous might as well just shoot yourself, you're wasting space on earth.

Everything you want to know about it is in the science fiction novel..

where do you think 'they' get their info from???


Proxima,  author Stephen Baxter



there is this line in the move 'Pirates of Silicon Valley [1999]'...




Bill Gates:
There may be a few... similarities.

Steve Jobs:
Similarities? Similarities? Try THEFT!

Shouldn't those people who discovered Proxima b get the 2016 Hugo
Awards????



(and also the guy who discovered Canals on Mars should get the Hugo
Awards too!)



Hell, might as well give everyone here the Hugo Awards....

Here's how it works:

Lets say
you got a job
as a scientist
because your father
is a scientist, but you came
out being stupid like your mother instead..

and you want to discover a new planet...

You just pick something
500 light years away...
get a science fiction book
about a planet 500 light years away
and give your new planet the same properties
contained in the science fiction book,
and submit it to all the science journals.

You will become an overnight sensational Star!

keep in mind that it is very important to
find a planet in a science fiction book that
'matches' your newly discovered planet you
just made up. So that it rings true in
those stupid science journals editor's heads.

Maybe use the same name of the planet you find in the science fiction
book..

same...proximity.


(no pun intended)
