Proxima B: Habitable Paradise Or Infernal World In Alpha Centauri?

Описание: Are the planets of Alpha Centauri habitable or just a dream of humanity? Proxima Centauri b, the closest exoplanet to Earth, orbits inside the habitable zone of its red dwarf star and has become one of the most exciting discoveries in astronomy. Scientists confirmed its existence using radial velocity spectroscopy, and ever since, research has focused on habitability, liquid water, atmosphere survival, and whether alien life could develop there. Despite its mass being similar to Earth, Proxima b faces strong stellar flares, tidal locking, and questions about its magnetic field. The possibility of multiple planets, including Proxima c, makes the Alpha Centauri system even more mysterious and raises hopes of finding conditions where life could thrive.
