PHOTO OF THE WEEK, Barnard's Star

It's that time of year again for the Barnard's Star update. There is a
small star very close now that makes it easy to see the motion since last
year.

You have a fine site with really great pictures from an 8" Newtonian.
I checked out and get the following:
2LY/87mi/sec = 4,278 years not 8000
or, put it another way:
10sec/Yr * Range = 87mi/s
Range = 9.643 LY
Is there a way to tell whether it might not have other components of
velocity than just abaft the Newtonian axis?
I enjoyed the rest of your site too.

Dr.Avash Mitra from India has contradicted Steve Hawkin's theory on
blackhole.
He has published his paper in some Physics Journal. Can anyone provide
the complete reference of Mitra's paper so that one can comment upon
his theory.
