I've watched every episode of The X-Files. But I confess it was a long time ago and I've forgotten most. Thanks for the reminder

I'm a huge fan of GB's astronomical entries. There's only one thing that makes me uncomfortable about this one, and it's the title. I think this entry is really about the UFO story, which I love. Zeta Reticuli doesn't really have much significance until the (now discredited) association with that star map.
I wouldn't change anything, except the title. How about "The UFO Legend of Zeta Reticuli"?

Well, we'll cancel your subscription to 'The Lone Gunman', Icy, but that actually looks like a good title to me, too.

Um, that ruins my being able to cross off "Z" on my list of astronomy entries written.
I'll have a think about it, while I'm trying to get to sleep

Hmmm, I'm sure there must be more Zs out there: ZZ9 plural Z alpha, Zaphod's home star system, Zzzzz - the 10 Most Unexciting Things in the Galaxy.

OK, I bow to the majority
I've also tweaked the article to include the word "Zetans" as it previously didn't (and "liver-eating")
