Alpha Centauri A is the closest star comparable to our Sun. Finding a planet there is a great achievement made possible by the James Webb telescope, the #MIRI instrument and its coronagraph. Many thanks to Chas Beichman, Aniket Sanghi @exoAS23b and the whole team !










IPAC scientist finds evidence for a planet in the same star system as #Avatar's Pandora! If confirmed by additional observations, "Its very existence [...] would challenge our understanding of how planets form, survive, and evolve in chaotic environments." ipac.caltech.edu/news/nasa-s-jw…
