Since the 6th October, 1995 several new planets orbiting other suns have been discovered and officially announced. However, in what may be a breakthrough for ufology, on the 20 September, 1996, a planet was discovered orbiting the star Zeta 2 Reticuli. In 1961, Betty and Barney Hill were abducted by aliens and taken aboard their spacecraft. During her abduction, Betty was shown a star map. She was asked by an alien to point out the Earth, but since Betty had no knowledge of astronomy, she couldn't reply. After her abduction, and under hypnotic regression Betty Hill drew the star map as accurately as possible. A few years later, Marjorie Fish built a few models of star systems using plastic balls and wire .. one of these models matched Betty Hill's diagram. The star system from which Betty had been told the aliens originated from was Zeta 2 Reticuli!

In 1988, Bob Lazar came forward with an incredible story - he said he had worked at Area 51 (S4) in Nevada to reverse engineer alien spacecraft that had been captured by the US government. During his stay at S4 he was given briefing papers to read and some of them described the alien's home solar system .. and yes, you've guessed it .. Zeta 2 Reticuli, and specifically the 4th planet in that solar system!

Below is some interesting information found on several mailing lists:

From the Extra Solar Planets Encylopedia

In a rather strange "about face", the above information was removed from the Extra Solar Planets Encyclopedia site after 4 days .. the official reason was that "the data may have been misinterpreted and there probably is no planet." Fortunately, I had saved the original version of the Encyclopedia with the Zeta 2 Reticuli information still present.
