Scientists study why planet 1,000 light-years from Earth has suddenly vanished

Astronomers discovered that TOI-2535 b, a planet located 1,000 light-years from Earth, has mysteriously disappeared from view after repeatedly passing in front of its star. Dubbed as the “disappearing planet”, it is not believed to have vanished physically. Scientists suspect an unidentified object tugging at it altered its orbit, making it no longer visible where it was previously observed.
