	Planet - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		Planet is the common designation for a certain type of celestial body orbiting a star.
		Within the United Federation of Planets, celestial bodies with diameters below 100 km are usually classified as planetoids or asteroids rather than planets.
		Planets may accumulate gigantic atmospheres, exceeding their original size and mass, or they may rest without any atmosphere at all.

	eSky: Alpha Centauri
		Alpha Centauri is a star of the southern sky, and is not visible to observers at a latitude greater than about 25° north (roughly the latitude of Florida, Egypt or Taiwan).
		Alpha Centauri A is a star very similar to our own Sun, and so the presence of Earth-like planets within its system is by no means impossible.
		Alpha Centauri - famous as the nearest visible star to the Sun - represents the foot of the Centaur, and falls near the southern and eastern borders of that constellation, on the fringes of Circinus.

		Alpha Q initially refused to work with Kicker, but Misha, through slightly kinder and more diplomatic words, was able to sway him.
		Unfortunately for Alpha, the Horsemen were repelled by the Omnicons and the newly-enhanced Autobots, which gave them the time needed to reach Earth and sink the Terrorcons' plans.

	SPACE-TALK - Alpha Centauri- Do you think life is there?
		Orbits like this would be unstable on such a timescale that the planet would not have time to form life before it was hurled out into space or sent into a non-life sustaining orbit.
		Alpha Centauri A and B are not extremely close to one another (they vary between 11 and 35 AU separation), but they are certainly close enough that any planet would feel the effects of both stars.
		Other factors to consider are increased asteroid impacts due to the presence of the other star, the large x-ray flux from the corona of the Alpha Centauri B, the formation scenario (was it a capture or did they form from a single protoplanetary disk?), and planet migration.

	Alpha Centauri - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alpha and Beta Centauri are near to each other in angular distance as seen from the Earth, but Beta Centauri is almost 120 times more distant.

		Alpha Centauri A is HD 128620, HR 5459, CP-60°5483, GCTP 3309.00A, and LHS 50.

	CNN - 'Alpha Centauri' is a perfect blend of sci-fi and turn-based gaming - March 1, 1999
		"Alpha Centauri" is derivative of "Civilization," a game that challenged players to build up a civilization on Earth, starting from building a few cities until the world is conquered.
		There are the technocrats (University of Planet), the environmentalists (Gaia's stepdaughters), the central control freaks (The Hive), the capitalists (Morgan Industries), the gun lobby (Spartan Federation), the religious zealots (The Lord's Believers) and the humanitarians (The Peacekeeping Forces).
		Managing your cities in "Alpha Centauri" is much the same as in "Civilization II." Each city is comprised of 21 squares, which produce various amounts of building materials (minerals), economic currency (energy), and food (nutrients).

		Alpha Centauri is the work of a master vintner; it's been carefully crafted, each ingredient examined, every process mulled over.
		In other words, Alpha Centauri is far more than just Civilization III, and while it was made by the same team that did Civilization I and II and shares all of those games' conventions and designs, it goes far enough beyond the old ones that I'm not likely to go back.
		For example, the back of this game's manual has a short essay on the dynamics of planet building and solar system formation, which offers a justification of why the "Planet" at Alpha Centauri is the way it is.

	Breen (planet) - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		Breen is a planet in the Breen system, homeworld of the Breen species and capital world of the Breen Confederacy.
		If this is true it poses many questions about the extent and nature of Breen counter-intelligence, as references to Breen by major Alpha Quadrant powers, including the Cardassians (who had an embassy on the planet) have referred to Breen as cold.
		It is also possible that Vorta have a high tolerance for cold temperatures, or that Weyoun was deceived, mistaken, or deliberately lying.

		From the same planet, α Cen B would be seen to make its eighty-odd year journey slowly against the background stars.
		If our Earth-like planet orbited in the same plane as the two bright components, highly unstable planetary orbits would be produced, caused mainly by large perturbations from the unequal gravitational pull by the two stars.
		Another minor hole in his speculations is the problem of how planets could form in such extraordinarily harsh circumstances, as the formation of stellar disks would be significantly destroyed by the gravitation of each star.

		As time passes in the game, Alpha Centauris natural defenses are steadily increased, the Mindworms, evolve into both aquatic and airborne monsters, allowing Planet to hit you (and the other factions) with a three-pronged attack of increasingly more numerous (and deadly) specimens.

	Alpha Novatech S-PAL8952 Pentium4 Heatsink Review - FrostyTech.com
		Alpha heatsinks are made in Japan, and they have a preciseness about them which stands out against the sea of superficial lights, colours, and materials used in so many of today's fly-by-night heatsinks.
		Some Alpha heatsinks perform better than others, and top of the line performance is obviously not a given, but there is a certain quality standard which provides reliability in their products.
		Additionally, Alpha have increased the length of the aluminum fan shroud which sits on top of the S-PAL8952 to 19mm, so intake air is forced to move past the warmer portions of the heatsink's pins.

		Planet's atmosphere, though a gasping death to humans and most animals, is paradise for Earth plants.

		The team conclude that this planet must have had life at some point in its past when it was close to a parent star.
