Part 2/8:
Proxima B has been a focal point of astrobiological studies, igniting debates within the scientific community on whether it might support life. While some experts point to its location in the star's habitable zone as a favorable sign, others argue that its conditions could be too extreme for life as we know it. Traditional methods to analyze this planet involve studying light patterns, atmospheric conditions, and radio signals, but the overwhelming volume of data makes it difficult to draw definitive conclusions.
Enter Grock 3, designed to detect patterns and anomalies that human researchers might easily overlook. Initially tasked with refining existing atmospheric models, Grock 3 instead stumbled upon an unexpected signal that could redefine our knowledge of Proxima B.
