Original: Radio Waves From Beta Pictoris b May Be a Cosmic First

Astronomers report that radio waves may have been detected coming from Beta Pictoris b, a young gas giant roughly 60 light-years away. If confirmed, it would be the first time radio emissions have been linked to an exoplanet, offering a new way to study planets outside the solar system and their magnetic fields.
