HD 113766

HD 113766 is a binary star system located 424 light years from Earth in the direction of the constellation Centaurus. The star system is approximately 10 million years old and both stars are slightly more massive than the Sun. The two are separated by an angle of 1.3 arcseconds, which, at the distance of this system, corresponds to a projected separation of at least 170 AU.
What makes HD 113766 special is the presence of a large belt of warm (~440 K) dust surrounding the star HD 113766 A. The dense dust belt, more than 100 times more massive than the Solar System's asteroid belt, is thought to be collapsing to form a rocky planet, which when it has formed will lie within the star's terrestrial habitable zone where liquid water can exist on its surface. HD 113766 represents the most well understood system in a growing class of objects that should provide more clues to how rocky planets like the Earth formed.

Some video of the 5 hives. I was checking for pollen going in.

The Center hive and formerly Green nuc hive are the strongest. West never recovered after swarming but they're kind of lazy bees too. East is building up after their most recent swarm on May 31 and a week before on May 25... 🐝 The formerly White nuc got 2 deep boxes last week but had almost no brood so the queen stopped laying, swarmed, or something.
