Kol Tregaskes(@koltregaskes):Astronomers did not ask for this work to be done. Astronomers have a specific idea about what constitutes progress, shaped by proposal cycles, queue time, and other disciplinary norms. We do not agree that an outsider and Claude identifying a 3.18 day dip in public TESS data moves the needle on our discipline, and we ask the public not to call a dip a planet until we stamp it as such. 😜

I think I found a planet nobody knew existed. It's been hiding in NASA telescope data for seven years. At the end of this thread, you can fly to it yourself.
