Data hints at exoplanet possessing possible liquid ocean surface. Carbon-bearing molecules have been discovered in the atmosphere of the habitable zone exoplanet K2-18 b by…
Using TESS, scientists identified two long-period exoplanets, TOI-4600 b and c. These discoveries open new research avenues in understanding exoplanets, and the findings emphasize the…
Scientists have discovered six new exoplanets, taking the total to 5,502. With advancements in technology, the field of exoplanet research has grown exponentially since the…
Stampede2 supercomputer simulations help capture helium gas clouds escaping distant planet. A planet located approximately 950 light years from Earth could be the Looney Tunes’…
The frosty gas giant was discovered in a system that also hosts a warm Jupiter. Of the over 5,000 planets known to exist beyond our…
New Giant Planet Is Evidence of Possible Planetary Collisions A Neptune-sized planet denser than steel has been discovered by an international team of astronomers, who…
Chromium hydride, found in the temperature range of 1,200-2,000 degrees Kelvin, has been detected in the hot Jupiter WASP-31b’s atmosphere. This discovery paves the way…
Researchers from the University of Arizona have found a youthful exoplanet that may shed light on this phenomenon and offer insights into how planets form….
Scientists have identified a Jupiter-sized planet, TOI-4860 b, around a low-mass star, challenging conventional planet formation theories. An international team of researchers has discovered an…
Ariel, ESA’s mission to study the chemical makeup of distant exoplanets, has cleared its Preliminary Design Review (PDR), marking a significant step toward its 2029…
Neptune-sized planet weirdly and sporadically burps hydrogen as it circles its star. Trillions of miles from Earth, the violent and erratic shedding of a young…
Rambunctious Star Pummels Young World with Torrential Winds and Blistering Radiation Life around an ill-tempered red dwarf star is no fun for accompanying newborn planets….
The finding shows that a water reservoir is available for terrestrial planets that might be coalescing there. Water, water, everywhere – not in drops, but…
New research conducted by scientists from NASA and Japan’s Osaka University suggests that rogue planets, or worlds that drift through space untethered to a star,…
One day, perhaps in the not-too-distant future, a faraway planet could yield hints that it might host some form of life – but surrender its…
An international research team, using the MAROON-X instrument, has detected and quantified 11 chemical elements in the ultra-hot exoplanet WASP-76 b’s atmosphere. Unexpected abundance anomalies…
Astronomers have detected a debris cloud that could indicate a ‘sibling’ planet sharing the orbit of an existing planet around a distant star, using the…
Researchers from The Ohio State University have discovered unusually strong magnetic fields in some stars, challenging current star evolution models. This potentially impacts the habitability…
