Apparently Alpha Centauri Bb does not in fact exist. It was a spooky Halloween ghost all along!

Seriously though, I believe there are references to this world on EG. We may need to update this.

Well, I think it might still exist, but with a different orbital inclination. I'll leave it in the scenario for now, although removing it would not make much difference to the historical events in that system.
