James Webb Space Telescope: '' I Found Proxima B!''

Scientists are searching for planets like Earth, and one of the most promising ones they’ve found is Proxima B, the closest exoplanet to us. Thanks to the James Webb Space Telescope, we now have a clearer picture of this planet. It looks a bit like Earth, but there are also big differences. The planet orbits the star Proxima Centauri, which is over four light years away. That's not a distance we can cover with current technology, but there are plans for future missions that could get us closer.While examining new data, scientists detect a mysterious signal from Proxima B, hinting at alien life.

As we learn more about it, we face both exciting possibilities and big challenges. While it's close enough for us to consider exploring, its environment is extreme and difficult to survive in. But that’s not the worst part. It has some characteristics that raise serious questions about whether life could exist there, and we still have a lot to learn.

The size of that alien structure must be gigantic.
