This Planet Broke the Space Rulebook

Astronomers just found a giant planet chilling 690 times farther from its star than Earth is from the Sun. And get this—the star is a tiny red dwarf, not some massive sun. This wild setup has scientists scratching their heads because it doesn’t fit any of the usual planet-formation theories. It’s like finding a beach ball orbiting a marble from a football field away. Space is way weirder than we thought! #Science #space #astronomy

Our Sun’s Wild Close Call Revealed!

Turns out our solar system had a cosmic near-miss! Scientists just found a ‘scar’ in the clouds beyond our sun, left by two massive stars that zoomed by 4.4 million years ago. These stars were so bright, they would’ve outshone Sirius in the night sky! Their wild flyby blasted our neighborhood with radiation, possibly shaping conditions for life on Earth. Space drama, right? #Science #SpaceMystery #Astronomy
