Scientists have discovered a giant planet orbiting a tiny red dwarf star, something they believed wasn t even possible. The planet, TOI-6894b, is about the size of Saturn but orbits a star just a fifth the mass of our Sun. This challenges long-standing ideas about how big planets form, especially around small stars.

You see, there's a race of beings so intelligent, long lived, and generally amazing that we mere humans can only think of them as 'gods.'

But even thy can succumb to the lure of using a Chatbot AI instead of doing their own work.
