LISTEN: Astronomers just spotted a new ‘Super Earth’ planet that feels a whole lot like home

 

Astronomers have discovered a new SUPER EARTH planet that could be the next frontier. K2-18b was originally discovered in 2015 but after further study by astronomers has been categorized as a SUPER EARTH planet. Right now, scientists have narrowed down the planets makeup to being either mostly rocky with a gaseous atmosphere like Earth OR a water planet with thick layers of ice covering its surface. “With the current data, we can’t distinguish between those two possibilities,” says Ryan Cloutie, PhD student at University of Toronto Scarborough. “But with NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope we can probe the atmosphere and see whether it has an extensive atmosphere or it’s a planet covered in water.” It’s sounds like the next Earth is in a galaxy not so far away after all.

As artificial intelligence moves deeper into enterprise operations, many organizations are discovering that the real challenge is not adoption, but control. Traditional software has always been predictable: the same input produces the same output, making it possible to audit systems at a fixed point in time. AI changes that equation.

Introducing TheAIAudit: A Platform Built to Measure, Monitor, and Govern Enterprise AI
May 22, 2026

Enterprise AI is advancing faster than most companies can govern it. Behind the scenes, AI systems are already influencing decisions tied to revenue, operations, compliance, customer outcomes, and risk — yet many organizations still lack a clear way to measure, explain, or oversee what those systems are doing. That is the gap TheAIAudit was…
