The Exoplanet Next Door
Astronomers have discovered evidence of a small, rocky planet orbiting our nearest star – and it may even be a bit like Earth. Nobody knows whether the planet, called Proxima b, could ever sustain life. The little planet orbits our sun’s nearest neighbouring star, Proxima Centauri, making it the closest exoplanet ever found.

Our beloved JJ almost said goodbye to Snotr. He has to work a bit on his respect for the people who keep Snotr alive and kicking. This time he got lucky, but next time, there won't be a next time.
JJ already received a Snotr Warning and was also temporary banned from Snotr some time ago in the past, FYI. (JJ knows why)
No, we don't expect you to kiss our asses. We don't expect you to flatter us. We don't expect any kind of special treatment from you. We don't expect you to say " you are f*cking useless at your job".
