Science
1 reportScience is a scientific journal governed by policies for peer review, reporting, data access, corrections, and retractions. Its scientific usefulness rests on article types, retraction policy, and editorial scope, not simply on the volume or visibility of the material it hosts.
Reporting makes sense of Science by comparing post-publication scrutiny, while also considering peer-review standards and editorial selection. For editorial selection, the primary record comes from editorial notices, with independent replication providing a separate test; uncertainty persists because publication in a prominent venue does not by itself establish consensus.

Atmosphere Detected on Rocky Exoplanet in Habitable Zone
Astronomers have directly detected helium in the atmosphere of LHS 1140 b, a rocky exoplanet orbiting within its star's habitable zone, using infrared spectroscopy. The finding raises new questions about atmospheric survival and planetary habitability.
