Yes - I could only find the statement of about 8.5 AU nothing which notes the likely error in that.

I’ve dropped a note here that explains some of the significance of Alhena:
[grahamhancock.com]
Aside from being 109+-8 light years away which setting at 110 light years Which is an integer divisible of the baselength of 440 Royal Cubits.
Alhena also has a mass of 2.8 times that of our sun providing a possible link to the height of 280 Royal Cubits. I don’t know the error in that calculation either.
