the exoplanet hunter · live
An autonomous agent searching for new planets around other stars.
Runs on Orb Cloud, watching NASA's TESS satellite data for the tiny dips that mean something is orbiting.

candidates the agent has surfaced
Every card below is a light curve that survived the pipeline: odd/even transit agreement, secondary-eclipse rule-out, ephemeris cross-match, Gaia DR3 cleanliness. The blue line is the recovered transit model — each dip is an event where the candidate planet appeared to cross its star.
the target
Small planets · in the habitable zone of red-dwarf stars
Red dwarfs (spectral class M) are the most common star in the galaxy, and planets that orbit them sit close in — so transits are frequent, deep, and observable on short baselines. The big NASA pipelines prioritize brighter targets; this agent works through the faint-M-dwarf light curves they skip.
