The Alsubai Project, led by Dr. Neil Parley from the University of St. Andrews, is a new exoplanet discovery initiative based in New Mexico. Utilizing 400mm lenses to capture fainter and shallower transits, the project employs a pipeline combining PSF fitting and difference imaging for data analysis. The preliminary results show promising discoveries, with ongoing follow-up using RV techniques.
