Astronomers have detected thousands of planets, including dozens that
are potentially habitable. To winnow them down, they need to

Modern astronomy would struggle without AI and machine learning (ML),
which have become indispensable tools. They alone have the capability
to manage and work with the vast amounts of data that modern
telescopes generate. ML can sift through large datasets, seeking
specified patterns that would take humans far longer to find.
