Vega lies in the constellation Lyra and is one of the brightest stars in the sky.

In 2013 , astronomers detected a large ring of rocky debris surrounding the star.

The prospect of planets suddenly became a real possibility so astronomers turned the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) on it.

The hunt achieved 10 times the sensitivity of previous ground-based searches but alas no planets were discovered.
