futurism.com Unknown 2025-11-30 14:31:19

It's not easy to uncover exoplanets, largely lightless objects that either lurk in the dark void of space or are blown out by the light of a nearby star.

Using the James Webb's Mid-Infrared Instrument, the team found strong clues of a mysterious gas giant in the Alpha Centauri star system, the nearest star system to Earth.

Orcas Pretend to Drown Each Other in Rare Training Session Caught on Camera

gizmodo.com Margherita Bassi 2025-12-07 04:10:22
