AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoInterstellar Visitors: Harvard astrophysicist Avi Loeb argues that two fast meteor candidates point to millions of objects from other star systems near Earth. The estimate is speculative, but recovering fragments could offer a rare chance to study them. Earthquake Forecasts: A decade-long test of 27 models found some reliably describe next-day earthquake patterns—though they cannot predict the exact time and place of a quake. AI for Science: CERN and Mistral are developing “Flare,” an AI model for particle physics, while a new funding effort aims to help mathematicians check AI-generated proofs. A Green Star: Astronomers report a white dwarf that appears green, apparently tinted by debris from planets it consumed. Timekeeping: Earth’s faster spin raised the prospect of a negative leap second; timekeepers have voted to retire leap seconds from 2027.
