summary: "A researcher used the Opus 5.5 model to identify 10 potential exoplanets by scanning 9,979 red and orange dwarf stars. This follows a discovery by Pavel Rabtsevich, who used Claude Code with Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1 to parse seven years of NASA TESS data. NASA has approved telescope time for TESS to observe the star TOI-4342 from Oct 31 to Nov 26 to verify the findings."
