If not into establishing a Sirius Oort cloud, then perhaps some of its
nifty stuff ended up becoming more of Sirius A, and/or possibly
joining up with us.

All of which are darn good questions that a fully interactive 3D
orbital simulator and of perhaps 1024 CPUs that's running with the
best available science might help answer.

How do you know it would require that number of CPUs? What kind of
interconnects do you think they should have? Do you think this is the
kind of problem that is best handled by a cluster or a symmetric
multiprocessor?

Any good ideas as to why all of such capable simulators and
supercomputer capability that has likely been paid for several times
over, yet having been kept taboo/nondisclosure rated?
