New Static POI System location

I stumbled opon this yesterday and thought that it would make a great addition to E:D. Thinking about other additions like the Trappist System and such, this phenomenon also actually exsists and is truely unique. AFAIK there are "similar" systems with multiple neutron stars, but having something as impressive and dangerous as this much closer to the bubble, would be really cool.

Thoughts?

For those too lazy to read the ariticle, here's the short version:

Astronomers have found a tripple Wolf Rayet star system with binary WR stars orbiting each other creating massive solar winds. The cherry on top is that this system is the first ever discovered system within our own milkyway to release massive gamma ray outbursts. Any prior observation until this day is waaaaaaaaaay outside our galaxy. Apep is located only 8000ly from Earth and under any other sircumstance, it could wipe us all out with one swift stroke (as Tarkin would have said).
 
Would love to see this sort of thing with inclusion of corresponding dangers - e.g. the gamma ray bursts hammering your shields unless you are hiding in the shadow of a planet when they occur.
