French scientist Etienne Klein in his study excitement the star popped out a picture of a slice of sausage as a picture of Proxima Centauri.
A few days ago, Kline posted a photograph allegedly taken by the James Webb telescope online. On it, according to the French, a red star was depicted on a black background. The author of the picture was at first amazed at the level of detail in the picture, but after a while admitted that it really happened.

Proxima Centauri is a red dwarf and the closest star to the Sun. At least three planets have been found in its system.
