New exoplanet found near Beta Pictoris.



"Beta Pictoris is located about 60 light-years away toward the constellation of Pictor (the Painter’s Easel) and is one of the best-known examples of a star surrounded by a dusty debris disc. This image, based on data from the Digitized Sky Survey 2, shows a region of approximately 1.7 x 2.3 degrees around Beta Pictoris. Credit: ESO/Digitized Sky Survey 2" (Wikipedia, Giant Alien World Found Hiding in Plain Sight for 11 Years)

Beta Pictoris is the second-brightest star in the constellation Pictor, 63 ly from Earth. This young A-spectral-class star has three known exoplanets. Beta Pictoris b and c are large worlds. Both of those worlds have masses about 10 times Jupiter's. The exact masses of those gas giants are seen in the table. 

Beta Pictoris d is farther. Its mass is about 2,5 times Jupiter's. This means this solar system seems to be upside down. Heavier planets are closer to Beta Pictoris. c is the closest. But the second one, Beta Pictoris b, is in the middle. And the last and lightest, Beta Pictoris d, is farthest. 

Those exoplanets' orbital periods are: Beta Pictoris c: about 3,29 years. Beta Pictoris b: about 23,77 years. And Beta Pictoris d: about 91 or more years.




"These images trace Beta Pictoris d over more than a decade, from its discovery with ESO’s VLT to earlier detections in archival VLT and JWST data. The arrow marks the faint planet, while the brighter Beta Pictoris b appears in the upper images; the diagonal band is the system’s edge-on debris disc. Credit: ESO/B. Sutlieff, M. Bonse et al." (Wikipedia, Giant Alien World Found Hiding in Plain Sight for 11 Years)


That means that those three massive planets are forming in a planetary system. There is lots of matter. Those large and heavy exoplanets may have very large moons. There is a material ring around Beta Pictoris. That means. Those three planets. They might not only.

Larger objects orbiting that star. The moon is an object that orbits a planet. This means those giant exoplanets. They can have large Earth-size moons. Or. Even larger orbiters. This means that those super exoplanets. They can have other gas giants orbiting them. And anyway, Beta Pictoris d is the faintest exoplanet ever found. 


By using an Earth-based telescope. Beta Pictoris is too young and too hot to host habitable worlds.

“The motion of Beta Pictoris b. The orbital plane is viewed side-on; the planet is not moving towards the star.” (Wikipedia, Beta Pictoris b)




A-type star loses lots of mass. When. It turns mature.  The strong hydrogen line means that the star is young. But it also shows where that star was formed. 

It is a very hydrogen-rich nebula. Another interesting detail in the Beta Pictoris system is the large molecular ring around it. This dust disk is asymmetric. 

Those large planets in the Beta Pictoris system. Suggest this star. Could have traveled in some interstellar nebula. Then that star is pulled into that nebula around it. The gas giant. Doesn’t necessarily mean something light. Material. Or elements that formed the planet determine its weight. The planet can be larger than Earth. But it can have weaker gravity if it is formed of very light elements. This means that an exoplanet could be very different than any planet in our solar system. Those exoplanets are so different. 

That makes it impossible. To create. Some common models for planetary systems and their habitability. There are about 1,5-2 Earth-sized and Earth-mass planets in habitable zones. But most of those planets. They have no atmosphere. 

Things. like megaflares or some cosmic events. They can strip that atmosphere away in seconds. Or maybe some rocky worlds. They have no such core. That. It could form the magnetic field. Without a magnetic field, plasma eruptions strip the atmosphere into space. And in the case of large stars. Those plasma eruptions. They can travel to very long distances. A normal solar wind. It can blow the atmosphere off large planets.

The JWST detects building blocks of life from the Large Magellanic Cloud.


“Using JWST, researchers detected several complex carbon-based molecules in the ice around ST6, a developing star in the Large Magellanic Cloud.© NASA/ESA/CSA/JPL-Caltech/M. Sewiło et al. (2025)”

The JWST telescope found building blocks of life from another galaxy. That is one of the least surprising findings in the history of astronomy. This finding proved that chemical reactions are the same. In other galaxies. As they are in the Milky Way. The JWST telescope proved that our galaxy is one of billions of galaxies. Can we find life in other galaxies? This requires far more powerful systems than the JWST has. 

Life in other galaxies is possible, but it's hard to see. And even if we send a signal to another galaxy, and then that intelligent lifeform in the Andromeda Galaxy receives that signal. The signal spent about 2,5 million years in space. And that requires. That this hypothetical civilization is on a side of the Milky Way. If that civilization answers their signal.

Spends about 2,5 million years before it reaches the Milky Way. If we want to compare that time with Earth, the humans had not even existed when the light that we see left the Andromeda Galaxy. When the photon that we see from telescopes left. Homo Habilis was the most advanced pre-human. If we want to be realists. That hypothetical civilization requires the black hole energy level to create the signal that we could see. If we see that kind of signal, that means that civilization created radio 2,5 million years ago. 



But then. Black to those building blocks of life. And to hypothetical intergalactic travelers. 


The building blocks of life don’t mean that there is life. The civilizations in the other galaxies are interesting things. They might not have any effect on us. The distances in the universe are enormous. Theoretically. Is possible. That some lifeform can create a spacecraft. That stops time in them. Those spacecraft can travel extremely long distances. 

But their ability to stop time inside them. Bases in the spinning structure. The Tipler’s time machine. Or Tipler’s cylinder can transport an astronaut between galaxies. The problem is that this cylinder doesn’t remove cosmic speed limits. The time stops in a rapidly spinning cylinder. An outsider observer sees that the travel between two galaxies takes 2,5 million years. That means that. Only a civilization that wants to make that kind of trip could be a civilization. 

Whose home star detonated as a nova or supernova. If civilization. Sends the Tipler Cylinder on a journey. That would be a one-way trip. The crew will not meet their senders again. And if they return, evolution transformed their species. 

That locks energy into those particles that are inside them. If the space travelers make that kind of spacecraft, it’s possible. That they cannot ever come out of that craft. When the universe expands. The energy level in it decreases. That raises the difference between energy states inside and outside the spacecraft. And when a space traveller jumps out from that spacecraft, energy travels from that space traveller's body. 

When energy travels to the environment. That increases the level of free energy. And that means the space traveler who traveled across the universe in 2,5 million years could simply detonate if that astronaut jumps out from the spacecraft.

The dark matter can form energy for some stars.

 

"Some faint stars may not burn with fusion but with dark matter itself. These “dark dwarfs” could be the long-awaited clue to what makes up most of the universe. Credit: SciTechDaily.com"

"Deep in the center of our galaxy, scientists believe a strange type of star may be quietly glowing—not from fusion like our Sun, but from the invisible fuel of dark matter."

These “dark dwarfs” could act like cosmic detectors, collecting heavy, elusive particles that heat them from the inside. If we find them—and especially if we spot one missing its lithium—it could finally point us toward what dark matter really is."

(ScitechDaily, Stars That Shouldn’t Shine Are Pointing Straight to Dark Matter’s Identity)


*******************************

If dark or black dwarfs really exist those things can reshape the end of our universe. Those things can form the extra energy that we call dark energy. The white dwarf can also turn into a black dwarf when its energy storage is over. The black dwarf can cause dark matter annihilation which can form energy in the universe. 

Dark (or black) dwarfs mean brown dwarfs, stars that have failed and used up their nuclear fuel. Those stars are a  theoretical group of brown dwarfs. The origin of those things is brown dwarfs, the mysterious medium between planets and stars. Those brown dwarfs can burn their fuel very fast and turn into dark dwarfs. Dark dwarfs have no internal fusion material. They are quite massive but cold objects. That means. They are heavy. If we compare them with planets. And that thing can make them the gravitational traps for dark matter. The gravitational center also pulls dark matter around it. If dark matter has the particle form and the weakly interacting massive particles, WIMPs are real, which causes a situation where those particles impact the star's core. 

And that thing can form when dark matter travels into those stars. That gravitation will accelerate the hypothetical dark matter particles, WIMPs, that cause annihilation-type reactions in the dark dwarf. That dark matter interaction can form the “dark light” or dark energy. If that dark energy density is high enough that thing makes it possible that the dark matter annihilation forms so much dark energy that it makes those dark dwarfs shine. In this hypothesis, dark matter annihilation is the source of dark energy. 


The dark dwarfs, stars that should not shine might tell us about the dark matter. There are stars near the center of the galaxy that get energy not from fusion, but the energy that those stars shine forms from dark matter interaction. Near the center of the Milky Way material and energy are denser than at the outer edge of the Milky Way. The giant black hole Sgr A* pulls material and energy into it. In the gravity field, dark matter interacts in a similar way to the visible material. Except that gravity is the only known interaction between visible and dark matter. That means dark matter follows a similar spiral trajectory to Sgr A* as visible material. But that thing is not the entire truth about that strange phenomenon. 

Gravity centers like planets and stars also pull dark matter around them. And that thing can explain why those dark dwarfs can form energy from dark matter. There is a possibility that fast-moving dark matter forms some kind of gravity effect in the star. And that gravitational effect can form whirls that create energy for the star. The other, but more interesting model could be that the antimatter would be particles. And when those small stars trap dark matter in them that dark matter cloud inside them the outgoing dark matter particles impact with those local particles. Those impacts can release energy. 

Maybe, that is the first time when dark matter forms so much dark energy that it can interact with visible material. Dark matter interaction can open the path to new energy sources. But that interaction where hypothetical dark matter particles impact each other can explain the dark energy. These types of stars are the first time that some objects can get their energy from dark matter. And that observation tells about things like dark matter interactions with material. 

When a star or planet’s formation starts there must be a gravitational point that pulls material into it. The dark matter can be that gravitational point as well as some visible particles. Dark matter can also form black holes. But if some star gets its energy from dark matter, that thing will be a new and interesting observation. The new model about stars and their material is that every object in the universe involves both dark and visible material. Because dark matter interacts through gravity, planets and stars also pull dark matter inside them. The position of dark matter is unknown. It can be inside the quarks, between quarks, or electrons, or between other subatomic particles.

The phase singularity. It’s like a miniature WARP bubble that can travel faster than light.

The phase singularity is the bubble of emptiness. It can travel between quantum field strings. So that means that. The phase singularity can...
