In order to provide listeners with a comprehensive understanding of the information presented in this book, it is important to include a section dedicated to references. The following references have been used to compile the information about the mysterious alien planet, Proxima B.
One of the primary sources for information on Proxima B is the groundbreaking research conducted by the European Southern Observatory (ESO). Their discovery of Proxima B in 2016 sparked a wave of excitement in the scientific community and laid the foundation for further exploration of this intriguing exoplanet.
Additionally, the work of Dr. Sara Seager, a renowned astrophysicist and professor at MIT, has been instrumental in shaping our understanding of Proxima B. Her research on the potential for extraterrestrial life on distant planets has provided valuable insights into the possibility of life on Proxima B.
Furthermore, NASA's ongoing missions and projects, such as the James Webb Space Telescope and the Mars Rover missions, have contributed to our knowledge of Proxima B and the potential for interstellar travel to this distant world. The cutting-edge technology and expertise of NASA staff have been essential in advancing our understanding of the mysteries of Proxima B.
In addition to these primary sources, a number of academic journals and scientific publications have been consulted to gather information on Proxima B and the potential for alien civilizations on this distant planet. The research and findings presented in these publications have helped to shape the narrative of exploration and discovery surrounding Proxima B.

terrible

The title is a fraud. There is no science in this at alll.

The text is like a collaboration between a chatbot trained to emit vague generalities and a high school student trying to pad out two pages of notes into a fifty page term paper.

It just keeps repeating over and over and over and over and over that Proxima B is 4.2 light years away, that scientists are eager to study it, that it would be a big deal if we found intelligent life there, and rhetorically asking "could there be a city of lights on it's surface?". Repeating the exact same sentences word for word.

The narrator voice sounds like and artificial text-to-speech program.

Absolutely the worst thing I've ever downloaded from Audible.

I could only listen for about 10minutes before quitting and deleting.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
