Astronomers found an exoplanet orbiting Barnard's star.

"This artist’s impression shows Barnard b, a sub-Earth-mass planet that was discovered orbiting Barnard’s star. Its signal was detected with the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), and astronomers were able to confirm it with data from other instruments. An earlier promising detection in 2018 around the same star could not be confirmed by these data. On this newly discovered exoplanet, which has at least half the mass of Venus but is too hot to support liquid water, a year lasts just over three Earth days. Credit: ESO/M.

Astronomers found another interesting exoplanet. The exoplanet orbits a red dwarf star. That star is known, as Barnard's star. Barnard's star is interesting because it's a lone star. That makes this red dwarf the miniature version of the sun. The exoplanet Barnard B is one of the most interesting findings, that astronomers made. It's so low mass, that it cannot cause wobbling movement in specific motion.

That red dwarf is six light years from Earth. That planet is one of the first exoplanets that astronomers believed to be real when astronomers detected curvature in Barnard's star's specific motion. That wobbling movement made astronomers believe from 1963 to 1973 that Barnard's star has one or maybe two Jupiter-size exoplanets. Then those wobbling movements. Then that wobbling movement was explained as measurement errors.

So what caused the wobbling movement of the Barnard star? Was there some kind of exoplanet or was the phenomenon that caused the Barnard Star's wobbling some kind of exoplanet version of Planet X known as Planet Nine hunting? A long time ago researchers knew that planet Neptune had wobbling specific motion around the Sun.

Astronomers search for that mysterious planet around Neptune. And suddenly they found the dwarf planet Pluto. The problem was that Pluto had not enough mass to affect Neptune's trajectory. Researchers thought. That there was some kind of error in the calculations. But those anomalies continued. And astronomers found Pluto, 's mass was so low that it could not cause the wobbling into Neptune's trajectory. The problem is that Pluto was found in the right place. But it was too light.

What caused errors in 2018 calculations?

Still, in 2018 astronomers believed. That there was some kind of super-earth near Barnard's Star. The confirmed Barnard B is the so-called "sub-Earth", and that causes questions about why that kind of error in calculations happened.

The mysterious Barnard B. seems to have a similar problem. That exoplanet is too small to affect Barnard Star's trajectory.

The story of Barnard B is quite similar to the case of Planet Nine. That exoplanet X caused the wobbling movement of the Barnard star. Then astronomers found an exoplanet, that is too small to cause wobbling movement in the specific motion. But the new exoplanet Barnard B is a sensation. Its mass is about half of Venus. And it's one of the lowest-mass known exoplanets. The Barnard B is too low in mass, that it could cause changes in the specific motion. So the search for that invisible companion continues. The same way the search for planet X continues.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas. (Artist’s concept.)Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Rare Dust Particle From Ancient Extraterrestrial Meteorite Challenges Astrophysical Models) If the star is too heavy when its fusion reaction starts, it can detonate just at that moment, when its fusion starts. If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to form the blue giant or too small it can collapse straight into a black hole . If the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts. The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists model of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the...

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al.

And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista...

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

"New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) The transcendenc...
