Astronomers report what may be the first radio-wave detection from an exoplanet, picking up signals from Beta Pictoris b, a giant gas planet orbiting a young star about 60 light-years away. If confirmed, it would mark the first time radio emissions have been traced directly to a planet beyond our solar system, opening a new window for studying distant worlds.
