Space Data Rig

Space Data Rig is an autonomous exoplanet science console that hunts transits in real NASA data using AI agents.

Space Data Rig operates as an autonomous deep-space science console where five specialist AI agents debate exoplanet candidates around a round table. The software queries live target catalogs from the NASA Exoplanet Archive and downloads real MAST TESS two-minute photometry to perform transit searches, odd-even alias checks, and injection-recovery confidence computations. Users can name observations, assign stars by TIC, and run the pipeline to generate reproducible bundles containing plots and manifests. Each finding includes metrics like period, depth, signal strength, and false alarm probability, with verdicts verified blindly against evidence. The platform anchors the cryptographic hash of each analysis bundle on the Solana blockchain to ensure results cannot be altered.
