Keep a watch of observations on interstellar comet 3I Atlas. Some interesting news articles out too this month and a few of top picks are below.   A lot of research to read and study here   A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A Orbital and Physical Properties https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.03814       A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A Binary Star Modeling https://arxiv.org/abs/2508.03812     Imaging low-mass planets within the habitable...
