Alpha Centauri A is the nearest Sun-like star. In the Avatar movie, it hosts a giant planet orbiting in its habitable zone. New JWST results suggest that it may be the case in real life too… arxiv.org/abs/2508.03812 #JWST #Exoplanets #AlphaCentauri #Avatar #Pandora

Hubble observations made possible to accurately estimate the size of the interstellar spaceship hidden beneath a comet-like coma 🛸 (Just kidding)

Claudio Maccone, Italian SETI astronomer and mathematician, passed away this week at the age of 77. Claudio was an early proponent of SETI research and was globally known for his work in the field. A longtime friend of the SETI Institute, one of Claudio's dreams was to put a

The first #JWST results for TRAPPIST-1e are out 🚀 ➡️ Compatible with a compact N₂-rich atmosphere (like Earth) 👽 ➡️ Also compatible with a bare, atmosphere-free planet 🌑 Too early to pop the champagne 🍾 More JWST data on the way! 🔭✨ scientificamerican.com/article/jwst-s…

✨ 10 years ago today, our TRAPPIST telescope spotted the first planet transiting the tiny star later named TRAPPIST-1. 7 Earth-sized worlds followed — 3 in the habitable zone 🌍 Why not make Sept 17 = #TRAPPIST1Day? 🚀🔭 #TRAPPIST1 #TRAPPIST1Day #Exoplanets #Astronomy #JWST

I had the pleasure of giving a public lecture at Castel Gandolfo Vatican Observatory — on the search for life beyond our solar system. Proud to have represented Université de Liège and F.R.S.-FNRS on this prestigious occasion. #TRAPPIST1 #SPECULOOS #Exoplanets #Astronomy #Vatican

A 25 M🪐 brown dwarf eclipsing a 2 R🌍 white dwarf every 2.93 h! Discovered with NASA_TESS, confirmed with #SPECULOOS, GTC & UKIRT. A blazing 3000 K day side vs a cool <1000 K night side 🔥🌑 iopscience.iop.org/article/10.384… #Exoplanets #WhiteDwarfs #Astrophysics #SPECULOOS

Three Earth-sized planets in a compact binary system 🌟 Our TRAPPIST & SPECULOOS telescopes helped confirm TOI-2267 — the first known binary with transiting planets around both stars! 🔗 aanda.org/10.1051/0004-6… #Exoplanets #Astronomy #TRAPPIST #SPECULOOS #ULiège

The first works have started on the platform of our second SPECULOOS-North telescope, next to Artemis in Tenerife 🌋🔭 Coming Spring 2026, it will expand our search for rocky worlds around nearby ultracool stars and brown dwarfs. #SPECULOOS #Exoplanets #TRAPPIST1 #ULiège #MIT

Beware of dopamine agonists — heavily prescribed for RLS, a benign and frequent condition. Stopping them can cause a devastating syndrome: DAWS. This preprint is my scientific testimony. 🔗 osf.io/rv8ms/files/uk… #DAWS #RLS #DopamineAgonists #Neuroscience #CaseReport

🧠 Le Journal du Médecin publie aujourd’hui mon témoignage sur DAWS, un syndrome de sevrage médicamenteux sévère encore trop méconnu. J'espère que cela aidera des patients. 📄 Article : bit.ly/4rCyGJo #DAWS #Neurologie #Santé #SyndromeSevrage
