Hi all,

This planetary system in Libra is making headlines as it is now confirmed to have the most (proto)planets discovered in any one extrasolar system. I'll be giving an interview on Midlands 103 (103.5fm) live around 11:40am to talk about this great discovery.

There's more information about it here:

and here:

That went well! It helps to have a presenter who is also interested in it.
