Webb Images Giant Exoplanet Candidate in Habitable Zone of Alpha Centauri A

This planet candidate, Alpha Centauri Ab, could be a gas giant, orbiting 1 to 2 times the distance between Sun and Earth, according to two papers to be published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. If confirmed, this planet would be the closest to Earth that orbits in the habitable zone of a Sun-like star. However, because the planet is a gas giant, astronomers say it would not support life as we know it.This artist’s concept shows what a gas giant orbiting Alpha Centauri A could look like.

Also known as Rigil Kentaurus, Rigil Kent and Gliese 559, the system is made up of the bright binary...

In August, amid a strong rebound in the cryptocurrency market, INEMiner launched a mobile app that enables users to passively earn BTC, ETH, XRP, and other assets through cloud mining technology.

Abstract: Against the backdrop of a strong cryptocurrency market rebound in August 2025, INEMiner.com launched a mobile app, allowing users to passively earn BTC, ETH, XRP, and other assets through cloud mining technology, breaking through the high barriers to entry of traditional mining and ushering in a revolution in digital asset acquisition. In early August 2025, Bitcoin saw a weekly increase of over 18%, while Ethereum experienced a 22% reversal. Institutional capital inflows accelerated, but the high investment cost of traditional mining machines (over $5,000 per unit) hindered 70% of ordinary investors from participating. To address this situation, the INE Miner cloud mining platform launched a new mobile app, allowing users to share the computing power of high-performance mining machines without expensive hardware or specialized knowledge, achieving daily real-time returns and intelligent profit optimization. The platform's intelligent algorithm...

The UK government’s AI Growth Zones strategy: Everything you need to know

The government is on a mission to make the UK an artificial intelligence (AI) superpower, by accelerating the adoption of the technology across the public and private sectors to supercharge the economy. According to the government, embracing AI will generate efficiencies in the way that businesses and public sector organisations operate, but achieving this will require the UK to develop the homegrown datacentre infrastructure needed to host compute-intensive AI workloads. To this point, the government outlined a commitment in January 2025 – following the publication of its AI opportunities action plan – to expand the UK’s sovereign compute capacity by at least 20-fold by 2030. And this is where the government’s AI Growth Zones strategy comes into play, which was another of the standout inclusions in the Action Plan. But what are AI Growth Zones?...
