"Mesmerizing Time-Lapse Condenses 17-Year Exoplanet Journey into Thrilling 10 Seconds"

Scientists have created a stunning time-lapse video capturing the 17-year journey of the exoplanet Beta Pictoris b around its parent star. The footage, condensed from real datasets collected between 2003 and 2020, covers around 75% of the planet's orbit, with another six years of data needed to complete the full journey. Beta Pictoris b is one of the few exoplanets that astronomers have been able to directly observe, and its brightness made it easier to find. The video was created using artificial intelligence and image processing techniques to smooth out gaps and remove blurring caused by Earth's atmosphere. The footage provides a unique glimpse into the inner workings of a distant planetary system.
