Interstellar Medium And Nebulae In External Galaxies, Multiple Stars
Scientific paper
Multidisciplinary by necessity, interstellar studies attack a seemingly intractable problem from numerous angles, many of which were on display at the Princeton conference. The past year has seen work that firms up our knowledge of the nearest interstellar target, the triple star system Alpha Centauri. Learning that the Centauri A and B stars may well support terrestrial style worlds, we push ahead into an era of breakthrough investigations in exoplanet detection and imaging. The treatment of the Centauri developments illustrates the changes that online capabilities bring to research, offering new venues and providing for vigorous debate via preprint archives, weblogs and self-archiving by researchers. These tools also hone our skills at presenting the public case for interstellar research to a lay audience often indifferent to both space-related activities and the possibility of long-term planning. We must continue to press the case for vigorous exploration and use these new online capabilities to re-energize an all too jaded public.
