Zeta Reticuli: A Nearby Wide Binary in Reticulum and Its Cultural Footprint in Ufology

To the point

Zeta Reticuli is a wide binary of two Sun-like stars, Zeta1 Reticuli and Zeta2 Reticuli, about 39 light-years away in Reticulum that orbit each other roughly every 170,000 years and are visible to the naked eye, with no confirmed planets or debris disk, and it is notable in ufology for Betty and Barney Hill’s 1961 abduction account and a star map interpreted by Marjorie Fish, a name that traces back to Lacaille.
