New signs found of giant gas planet in 'Earth's neighbourhood'
Scientists have located strong evidence of a giant gas planet in the Alpha Centauri star system, Earth's nearest neighbor at four-and-a-half light years away. This potentially habitable exoplanet, similar to Jupiter and Saturn, could have moons capable of supporting life. The discovery was made using the James Webb Space Telescope, offering exciting possibilities for finding habitable worlds in a star system similar to our own Sun.
