Researchers report possible evidence of Planet Nine in infrared data
Most outlets reported that software identified 13 candidate pairs of infrared sources, with only one remaining after manual verification. Both excerpts noted the candidate’s movement of 47.5 arcminutes over 23 years. The News International led with the finding as "first possible evidence," while Minute Mirror described it as "evidence" found by a Taiwan university. The framing of the discovery’s significance varied slightly, but both emphasized the infrared data and the manual verification process.
