2002:. You will probably be astonished at just how crude raw HST imagery is, if all you're used to is the highly-processed and "artificial" images shown on most space porn websites. They're not colour for a start (deliberately), although the same frames may be available at several wavelengths that can be combined to form a (real- or false-) colour image. They are "noisy", that is covered in spurious specks or streaks in addition to the optically real aberrations such as diffraction spikes. They also tend to show very little detail because of the unbelievable range of brightnesses contained within the raw image, which must be adjusted to a range that is visible to viewers while covering the detail that is considered important in that image (and possibly not showing other important details). Lastly, which surprises many people, is that the image frames tend to be a weird shape and orientation rather than a simple north-is-up (or down if you're old school or living in the less-populated hemisphere) square that you might expect. Occasionally this is visible in a final processed image, but often it is obscured by tilting the image so that north is off at some angle, or cropping it so that north can be up on a nice square palette. 507:
a point from which we look at something, as well as the direction in which we look, which way is "up", what the scale is, and how all these things change with time if it's a "movie". Normally these orbit diagrams use the earth (or the solar system, let's say) as the viewpoint, and, as you say, we remove the proper motion, which is like turning our camera so that it's always pointing straight at the system. (The above image of the Alpha Centauri A & B system shows both this and also a view from a different point of view, showing the ellipse flat on.) Now, if we apply that to the Alpha/Proxima system, it means that we turn our "camera" by 168° while the system goes through one orbit. That means that the orbit gets rotated around some axis (not perpendicular to the orbital plane nor in the orbital plane) by 168° relative to the (rotating) line between us and the system. So even if we keep the system at the centre of our camera's view, the paths of Proxima and Alpha do not describe ellipses. (During the previous orbit, when the system was somewhere around
1781:, it wasn't necessary to do a detailed calculation as you describe. The question was how far (in angle) the system will move in the next 40,000 years. For that all you need is its velocity components toward us and sideways (which you can easily get using the Pythagorean theorem), and its distance now. By the way, since we know that it presently moves about 1° per thousand years, and that the figure will be greater than this over the next 56,000 years because it will be closer to the sun, then obviously it will move more than 40° in the next 40,000 years. And it is moving generally west, along the line of the Milky Way. I did calculate the velocity components of the Alpha/Proxima system. Proxima changes the result very little since it has approximately the same motion relative to us as Alpha and because its mass is much smaller. 1274:
point of nearest approach, from there to the Alpha/Proxima system, and from there back to the sun. (The right angle is at the point of nearest approach.) The line from here to the point of nearest approach is like the cosine (times the hypotenuse), whereas the segment from there to the system is like the sine (times the hypotenuse). The latter changes linearly with time. So the tangent changes linearly with time. In 28,000 years it changes by about 1 (from 1 to 0). So in the next 12,000 years after closent approach it will change by 12,000/28,000, which means the angle will change by arctan(12/28) or 23°. So in all, over the next 40,000 years, the angle will change by 45°+23°=68°. Approximately. The point is, it's a lot! To just say the system will have "moved west" misses the whole point. That could mean it moves west by 1°.
2618:"Eighty-two years after the Cape discovery, Robert Innes at the Union Observatory in Johannesburg found a fainter star near alpha Cen that he suspected was a third but somewhat separated member of the same system. Its distance was measured over the following two years by Joan Voûte at the Royal Observatory and by Innes himself, unknown to each other. Innes prematurely declared it to be closer than alpha and named it 'Proxima Centauri', or 'Proxima' for short. Voûte's better-quality observations suggested it was no closer then alpha but, in fact, he was wrong and Innes was right, largely by chance!" So maybe the word "confirmed" needs to be changed. There are numerous sites that have copied the wikipedia article, and not much else. 1543:, the question is not whether it moves "a considerable distance". The question is whether it moves by a large angle. Look, if you don't follow my "hand waving" explanation (not even the fact that it will move 45° in the next 28,000 years?), then just do a simple calculation of how many light-years it will go in the next 40,000 years! It's trivial. It comes to about 4 light-years, and it's moving presently at about 45° away from "vertical". It's presently 4 light-years away. So obviously it will move through a large angle, not just during the present orbit, but just in the next fraction of an orbit (40,000 years out of half a million). But I accept your proposed version of the note (with a slight change), so I will make it. 744:
were to point a telescope at the system and put it on a mount that keeps it pointed at the system for tens of thousands of years, taking a movie, then if you watch the movie in fast motion, you would see both stars moving in near perfect ellipses. But in this case, it's not at all like that, at least not now. It was like that millions of years ago, and will be again millions of years hence. But now, from say half million years ago till half a million years from now, Proxima is not making ellipses around some moving point in the sky. Do you agree with that? Yet that is what the image implies.
2661:"Proxima Centauri has been the closest star to the Sun for about 32,000 years and will be so for about another 25,000 years, after which Alpha Centauri A and Alpha Centauri B will alternate approximately every 79.91 years as the closest star to the Sun" - it is supposed to be nearest to Sol in ca. 25-27,000 years' time, depending on which study one believes. But then it will move further away for several thousands of years (conceivably, for 57,000 years) before it stops being the closest and Alpha A & B take over. 1234:. What if somebody later comes along and changes it, saying the value is wrong? What do we do? That's why we need sources to make this encyclopedia accurate. Likewise, saying vague words like "far" can prove confusing to the lay reader because it is a relative term with no definite meaning. If we're going to get through this, then I'd like to see definitive wording with sourced data. That will help us anchor the information and keep it intact for future use. If citations aren't available, then tough. 127: 3294:
and radius used by Kervella et al. (2017) a metallicity of = −0.3. However, there are a number of uncertainties involved and a metallicity as high as solar is allowed within their one-sigma error bars when considering a mass-radius relationship based on absolute K magnitude. There are a number of recent derivations of spectroscopic metallicities for Proxima showing a spread around a solar-like value, e.g., -0.07±0.14 (Passegger et al. 2016), 0.05±0.20 (Kervella et al. 2016a).
161: 31: 1563:, particularly since I have not seen a published value for Alpha Centauri's transverse velocity and direction. It's derivable, but each step is one further beyond the "obvious and trivial". The hand-waving calculations are fine for order of magnitude (for example, good enough for removing a claim that it would move 4˚ in the next century), but not sufficient for adding a specific comment on how far it will move in a half-million years. See 560:
perspective of the earth, but it gives the erroneous impression that in the future we (or whoever) will see Proxima in the positions marked, when in fact, the whole system will move by us before Proxima does even one orbit, and "we" will be looking at it from the other side! The image is totally misleading, and I don't see why we can't put in a longer caption to explain that this is not what one would see from the earth in the future.
652:
Note that "orbit" means the closed curve which the object moves on, which is distinct from actual trajectory traveled by the object (which could be a helix when you account for proper motion). We can project the entire closed curve of an orbit without requiring an object travel along it, which is what that image is doing. The year markers along the curve give an idea of just how slowly Proxima travels along that orbit.
84:
the Milky Way between Lynx and Auriga. The view from Earth will also be from a different angle compare to now, so the orbit ellipse will change. The fact is that as Proxima and Alpha Centauri move, they trace wavy curves going west, rather than making ellipses in the sky. Eventually after a long time they will be so far away that the proper motion will be small and then their paths will start to look like loops or

distance away as Alpha Centauri (4.37 ly) in 1917, and 4.24 ly away today, then I thought it was appropriate to say "currently 4.24 ly from the Sun". Perhaps the info needs to be reorganized so that these ideas aren't so separated. There is also the idea that Proxima is in a wide orbit around the Alpha binary, with distance from the Sun varying periodically, as you noted above. I'll think some more on this.
405:
it comes to its closest point to us, the angle we see it at will change by 44°. The tangent changes by 22.4/23.4 every 28,000 years, so in the previous 275,000 years (half an orbit period) the angle changes by arctan((22.4/23.4)*(275/28)) or 84°, and in the next half a period it will change by another 84°. So while the system does just one orbit, the angle at which we see it changes by 168°!
1385:
for why it will move far. (I think whether you agree is important, Praemonitus, because if you believe that it moves 70° and yet you refuse to let me add the word "far", then I question your motives.) Do you accept that in 28,000 years, by the time it gets to its point of closest approach, it will have moved by 45°? Surely you can understand that. It doesn't involve any arctangent.
515:
through the sky during one period. There are also binary systems that are nearby (like Alpha itself, with A and B) and have a large proper motion, but they also have a relatively short period (80 years for Alpha). So in neither of these kinds of cases do we have the phenomenon that I am describing as the case for the Alpha/Proxima system -- slow period and high proper motion.
157:
like Proxima is going counterclockwise around Alpha, but either in the distant past or in the distant future (I don't know which without doing a calculation) it would look like it was going clockwise around Alpha! The switch occurs when the plane of the orbit passses through the solar system. At that point in time, the orbit will or did look like a straight line segment!
2499:
article gives the distance to Alpha Centauri as 4.37 ly, not 4.24 ly. One cannot "confirm" something that is false. I didn't try to fix it, because I don't know if Voûte made an error, or whether his level of accuracy was maybe one digit, i.e. 4 ly. If it is the latter case, then maybe add the word "approximately", i.e. "was approximately the same distance..."
237:
because the angular separation is so wide and the brightness so low for Proxima - which serves to provide a sense of scale. If there were any meaningful landmarks in the background image (beyond α AB and Proxima), there'd be a point in claiming confusion. But as is, I don't think the image confuses anyone. If that were a problem,

orbit as seen from earth. It does not show the future trajectory of either star, and would be misleading only if it identified particular landmarks and implied future location relative to such landmarks. Since you don't seem to be getting consensus, if you insist on changing this, you'll have to proceed through other means -
980:, and that perspective will not change in any meaningful way during our lifetimes. For educational purposes, it is absolutely appropriate to make sure that the change in perspective is explained in the prose, but the ratio of effort expended here thus far versus the value to the end user is unreasonable. Remember, 1831:
But when MacGregor, Weinberger, and their team looked at the ALMA data as a function of observing time, instead of averaging it all together, they were able to see the transient explosion of radiation emitted from Proxima Centauri for what it truly was. "There is now no reason to think that there is
1622:
Well, I can no longer say I've never seen transverse velocity published. The XHIP catalog gives me u,v,w vectors in km/s, with the commentary that these should be safe for linear motion calculations up to 2MYr. But where are you getting 32.6 km/s from, however? I get 31.896 km/s for A and 30.243 km/s
1558:
It's not that I don't follow your explanation, it's that you hand-wave the hard calculations and get them wrong. You have to do a 3-dimensional vector translation (convert from r/RA/DEC to xyz in km, apply linear translation with xyz velocity in km/s, convert from resulting xyz in km to r/RA/DEC, and

In private communication with one of the authors of the Kervella paper, he suggests that we say in the caption that the image represents the trajectory of Proxima relative to the barycentre of the system, projected on the plane perpendicular to the Sun-Alpha Centauri vector (the present "plane of the
759:
3000 words later, you haven't convinced me the image is misleading. I think it shows an orbit (an instantaneous closed curve, as opposed to a prediction of location) projected from the viewpoint of earth, against the current background of stars. I think the image is useful in showing the scale of the
559:
Sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. You want us to show a plot from a position perpendicular to the plane? That's not what we have! By the way, viewing an ellipse from some arbitrary angle still gives an ellipse. That's not my point. My point is that we are trying to show the orbit from the
535:
It comes down to common sense. You view the orbital plot from a position perpendicular to the plane, or else you end up distorting the elliptical shape. If you don't do it from that position, then it is necessary to present some symbols indicating the perspective. I don't see a need to clutter up the
506:
But the phrase "from the primary component's frame of reference" does not specify the view. In fact, it's not even clear what it means when you use it. It should mean a system of coordinates centred on the "primary component" (does that mean Alpha Centauri?). But to describe a view we need to specify
164:
Apparent and true orbits of Alpha Centauri. The A component is held stationary and the relative orbital motion of the B component is shown. The apparent orbit (thin ellipse) is the shape of the orbit as seen by an observer on Earth. The true orbit is the shape of the orbit viewed perpendicular to the

I put in "currently" because of this other statement. "In 1917, at the Royal Observatory at the Cape of Good Hope, the Dutch astronomer Joan Voûte measured the star's trigonometric parallax and confirmed that Proxima Centauri was the same distance from the Sun as Alpha Centauri." If it was the same

But I ended up calculating that Alpha Centauri will be in the Pictor constellation near where Canopus is (now) in 40,000 years (obviously neither Canopus nor Pictor will be there at

calculations are neither obvious nor trivial - as demonstrated by the fact that you haven't actually carried them out (you've hand-waved approximations). From a maintainability viewpoint, adding such calculations is purely WP:OR. The current note is clumsy, if I made any changes I'd probably re-word
1273:
The system is moving towards us at about 45° (velocity component towards us is 22 km/s, and sideways component is 23 km/s). So in 28,000 years, when it gets to the point nearest the solar system, it will have moved by 45°. At any point in time, one can draw a right triangle going from the sun to the
1269:
You did not answer my questions. Do you agree that it moves about 70° or not? To quote WP:CALC which you refer to, "Routine calculations do not count as original research, provided there is consensus among editors that the result of the calculation is obvious, correct, and a meaningful reflection of

Given the mass distribution of this system, the barycentre is probably indistinguishable from the blur that is Alf Cen AB. So yes, it's a projection of the orbital plot as seen from the perspective of the Earth. I was mistaken in my initial assessment of thinking it was from a position perpendicular
743:
I think it's an interesting fact, and I think that the present image is very misleading. It's not at all like talking about a ship going through different waves. (Remember, I'm not talking about the background.) You do realize that this system is different from all the others? In other cases, if you
617:
I'm pinging the others for this. The image certainly is from the perspective of the earth. (The fact that the caption talks about the background stars is an additional confirmation. Also notice that Alpha is not near the focus of the ellipse, so it's certainly not looking at it from perpendicular to
514:
The Alpha Centauri/Proxima system is unique in that it is the only one which is moving by us faster than the period of rotation. There are certainly other systems with periods of half a million years (though I don't think we actually know of any), but they would be far away and so would not move far
511:, it would not have moved nearly so much, but it would have drawn closer to us, so the orbit would have looked like it was getting bigger at the same time as rotating a few degrees. Overall, the system goes 180° around us, from Sagittarius to Centaurus where it is now and then on to Lynx or Auriga.) 2743:
The paper you link calls it an "exoplanet candidate" in the title and throughout the text. The paper uses the existing candidate orbital parameters and the Kervella et al. (2019) proper motion anomaly of Proxima to constrain the possible orbital parameters of such an exoplanet. It doesn't confirm

4.24 ly from the Sun" ) might give people the impression that this distance changes on "small" time scales, i.e. within a human lifetime or so (which isn't true). The distance to Proxima is just about as constant as (or rather more constant than (!)) that to other stars (as can be seen in the graph
2125:
In the "Characteristics" section of the article, it is said: "Because of its low mass, the interior of the star is completely convective, causing energy to be transferred to the exterior by the physical movement of plasma rather than through radiative processes." The only source cited for this is ,
1910:
I can't tell if you're trolling or serious. There could be any number of reasons for the 90 degree angle; most likely it is simply aesthetics because it looks a bit nicer with the rays going toward the corners rather than the edges. Doesn't change the quality or accuracy of the image, and certainly
1409:
Look, I understand and follow your arguments. However, you are in error by asserting that the vague word "far" describes an angular movement. Until you provide a properly cited statement for your values, there's nothing further to discuss. I am also starting to question your motives in this matter.
1384:
I accept that saying that the system will move 70° over the next 40,000 years borders on original research (although it is trivial, and we could easily ask the researchers whether it is correct). But all I wanted to do was to put in the word "far". I thought you would be able to follow the argument
651:
Yeah, as best I can tell, it's a projection of the orbit as seen from earth. That's why I think the image as it stands is useful, it provides a sense of scale for the angular size of the orbit compared to the background - unusual for a multiple star, there are many other stars in the field of view.
404:
At present, the Alpha Centauri/Proxima system is moving toward us with a velocity of 22.4 km/s and "sideways" (proper motion times distance) at 23.4 km/s, so the angle between its velocity vector and our present line of sight is arctan(23.4/22.4) or 46°. That means that in the next 28,000 years, as
260:
No, there's no sense of scale because you don't know how far away the viewing position lies. For me, all the background provides is a distracting clutter that delivers no additional information. As in art, less is more. If you need a sense of scale, then I'd suggest just using an actual scale − the

images of astronomical trajectories could ever contain any other stars, because everything moves all the time in different directions, and the background won't be precisely the same as the object moves. You couldn't even show a planet's motion against a stellar background, because those stars would
236:
The background image serves to give a sense of scale of the orbit. When you have a photograph of α Centauri A and B, there are no background stars visible in the image - because at that magnification and brightness, nothing else appears. In this case, there are gobs of background stars in the image
3293:
The question of the evolutionary history of the alpha Centauri system and in particularly the metallicity for Proxima has been recently addressed by Beech et al. (2017). They find a best match for Proxima to have a metallicity of = −0.5 or by constraining a simultaneous fit with the values of mass
2498:
More on distance. In the Observation section, we see, "In 1917, at the Royal Observatory at the Cape of Good Hope, the Dutch astronomer Joan Voûte measured the star's trigonometric parallax and confirmed that Proxima Centauri was the same distance from the Sun as Alpha Centauri." However, the wiki

Well if that's true then it should be explained in the caption. Actually though, this image, and others like it, are presented as viewed from Earth. It gives the false impression that in 40,000 years, Proxima will appear at the point marked "40", and in 80,000 years at the point marked "80" and so

It's vague, irrelevant to the picture, and, uncited. That it moves a considerable distance in 40,000 years isn't in dispute - it has a proper motion, thus it moves. The disagreement you're having with Praemonitus is how to characterize that, plus that you have no citation for your conclusion. The

So I'd like to know, do we agree on the facts? Do we all agree now that the image is from the point of view of the earth, that the system moves through a large angle in the sky as it executes the present half-million-year-long orbit, and that during the present orbit "we" see the elliptical orbit

If you were to draw the path of Proxima around the centre of mass of the system, as viewed from Earth, it would not look like an ellipse at all. It would look something like a spiral, first getting larger (in the distant past), and then getting smaller (in the distant future). At present it looks

I am putting the image with my caption here for reference. If you were to place an ellipse in space, moving along with the centre of gravity of the Alpha Centauri-Proxima system, then at this moment in time the ellipse would look like the one in the image. But of course the ellipse is moving with

Well, I still don't know the answer to my question of yesterday. But never mind. I agree that the ratio of effort to value was large. Originally Praemonitus objected that what I wrote was unsourced, which implies that he probably thought it was untrue. So I tried to convince him. Now he says the

I don't go around handing out barnstars and such, nor have I paid attention to every twist and turn of this saga, but I feel compelled to commend you for your efforts on this, Eric. You were absolutely right to pursue this issue and you've gone beyond the call of duty in your efforts to find the

Thanks! I'll start working on that! I'm probably going to leave the infobox alone (for now) as it has been edited a bit recently and I want to make sure other editors agree before changing it. In your opinion though, should the infobox "d" entry stay as it is, be modified, or removed entirely?
1295:
Even if you did that, you probably wouldn't get consensus on making your change. To re-use the ship analogy, it's like presenting a picture of a ship with a rotating radar dish sketched in, and wanting to add to the caption saying "by the time the dish finishes a rotation, this picture will be

The calculations you are presenting are original research. They are not "obvious, correct, and a meaningful reflection of the sources". Among other things, I don't see a source for your velocity vectors as stated. I assume you calculated the lateral motion, rather than finding it in a source.

1445:, you seem to agree that if we have consensus that the star system moves far in 40,000 years, then we can put the word "far" back in. Praemonitus acknowledges that he follows my argument. What about you? Do you agree that it moves far in 40,000 years? 1466:
it to something like "Note that by the time Proxima completes one orbit, the entire Alpha Centauri system will have moved to another part of the sky, so the perspective and background will be different". Even that, I'd regard largely obvious trivia.

Yeah, I shoved it back in a note where it was before, and as agreed during the discussion above. It's not like there aren't other explanatory comments in the notes section, so spare us your trivial indignities and just use a mouse-over to read it.
1292:
Regardless, the calculations could be done, but they would still not be obvious unless you provide them in better detail than above. You'd have to provide the vector calculations to produce an actual answer, not a handwaving approximation in words.

Unfortunately it's implicit: "First, notice that the star remains convective for 5.74 trillion years. As a result, the star has access to almost all of its nuclear fuel for almost all of its lifetime." I'll see if I can dig up a second citation.
400:
Sorry, but I don't know what you mean. Do you mean your sentence "I don't have a problem with the current caption because such plots are typically presented from the system's reference frame, rather than ours"? I don't understand that sentence.
799:
It's all because of four lines of caption that I wanted to add to an image to clarify things. I still don't know whether you two have understood what I'm trying to say, because when I ask whether you agree with what I claim, you don't answer.
975:
majority of our readership are laypersons who couldn't care one whit that the image won't be accurate in 28,000 years, or 40, or 80. They will find the image interesting because it represents what the system looks like from our perspective

Problems still continue. Distance 4.246ly in the infobox, should correspond to 4.25ly in the article body. And even the parallax 768.13mas in the infobox does not correspond with the citation number 2, page 12, where is 774.25mas.
2041:
The density is calculated in the "explanatory notes" using 0.145*R_sun, but the stellar radius is listed in the info box as 0.154*R_sun. Since volume is proportional to the cube of radius this results in a significant discrepancy.

The above comment by Praemonitus was changed on the 27th at 17:20. When I responded it just said "Look, I understand and follow your arguments. But until you provide a properly cited statement, there's nothing further to discuss."

O.k. - I'll concede. As a stargazer, I feel it gives a significant feel for the scale (as in scale relative to the sky, not in physical meters), but if you're determined, find an image that gives just the ellipse.

I agree, the paper does not describe the signal as "Proxima d", unlike for b and c. It is clear from the paper they are far from convinced it's real and not just a spurious detection:

The shape of the orbit will indeed look like that. I'm putting the image back. The background is irrelevant, it isn't marking any landmarks.

Fine, but then let's explain in the caption that Earthlings will not see Proxima in the positions marked. Do we all agree on that fact now?
