Could We Actually be in a Binary Star System?

this is out there and POSSIBLE…

Some smart folks have a fascinating theory that is rarely discussed!  We have heard of science fiction stories about two stars in our own solar system.  And we know binary systems exist in other parts of the universe.  So, could there really be two stars in our vicinity??  This astronomer thinks so:

In 1984, Richard Muller of the University of California Berkley suggested that a red dwarf star 1.5 light-years away could be the cause of the mass extinctions. Later theories have suggested that Nemesis could be a brown or white dwarf, or a low-mass star only a few times as massive as Jupiter. All would cast dim light, making them difficult to spot.

Scientists speculated that Nemesis may affect the Oort cloud, which is made up of icy rocks surrounding the sun beyond the range of Pluto. Many of these chunks travel around the sun in a long-term, elliptical orbit. As they draw closer to the star, their ice begins to melt and stream behind them, making them recognizable as comets.

    I always imagined a planet with a binary star to have another sun on the sky in some kinda way. It sucks to think we have a type of sniper binary star hidden out there shooting bullets at us.
