Is anyone else not bothered? No one corrected him during the panel. He called Wolf 359 a planet. It’s a red dwarf star. Unless he meant there is a planet nearby. Research says every red dwarf has one planet in a nearby orbit (much farther Earth to Sol).

I definitely noticed, but I wouldn't say it bothered me. Dammit Jim, he's an actor, not an astronomer!

And he's speaking off the cuff at a convention, about a plot that would have been written nearly a decade ago. There's any number of wires that could've been crossed in the retelling.

To be clear, not hearing him get corrected is what bothered me.
