Redditor claims to have discovered unknown planet using Claude Code
Original: I think I found a planet nobody knew existed. I used Claude Code to find it
A user says they may have discovered a previously unknown planet, claiming they used Anthropic's Claude Code, the AI coding assistant, to help find it. The claim, shared on Reddit's ClaudeAI community, is drawing attention as a striking example of AI tools being used for scientific discovery, though the finding has not yet been independently confirmed or published.
