Anew study suggest that famous Tabby's star is orbited by an object on the planet/brown dwarf boundary.
A team of astronomers have discovered a third planet orbiting the star Beta Pictoris. The new planet, Beta Pictoris d, is 100 times fainter than Beta Pictoris b and is among the lightest exoplanets ever to be imaged from the ground.
The planet, LHS 1140 b, is a super-Earth planet about 48 light-years from us. LHS 1140 b orbits a red dwarf star within the so-called habitable zone.
Astronomers have discovered a new Earth-like planet that might be a good candidate for habitability.
Using JWST, astronomers have just obtained humanity's first glimpse inside the atmosphere of the giant planet WD 1856b, which orbits a white dwarf – and found it far hotter than anyone expected.
Astronomers have discovered salty skies surrounding the universe's famous "Pink Planet." For more than a decade, the ancient, rosy-hazed world kept astronomers guessing.
Consciousness may arise not just in the biological tissue we find on Earth, but potentially in radically different physical materials found elsewhere in the cosmos.
A new research estimates that of order tens of millions of planetary mass objects can form in outer regions of AGN accretion disks - active supermassive black holes.
By tracking fierce winds racing through the atmospheres of seven ultra-hot Jupiters, astronomers have uncovered the strongest evidence yet that magnetic fields shape weather on worlds beyond our Solar System.
A newly observed planetary system, dubbed TOI-201 is an outlier. Surprisingly, observations of the system’s three known planets have revealed orbits that change in real time. That is to say, they shift on human timescales.
A bizarre planetary pairing 190 light-years away is challenging everything - a “lonely” hot Jupiter — typically found without nearby companions — is sharing its system with a smaller mini-Neptune tucked even closer to the star.
NASA has uncovered over 10,000 new candidate planets across our galaxy. Scientists found them through a single survey of data captured by the TESS space telescope.
New findings reveal that exoplanet L 98-59 d appears to belong to an entirely different class of planet containing heavy sulphur molecules within a permanet magma ocean.
According to an analysis of the strange changes in a Sun-like star named Gaia-GIC-1, located around 11,600 light-years away, its strange behavior can best be explained by two baby planets colliding in its immediate vicinity.
In a new study, researchers examine three massive gas giants about 130 light-years away, using their atmospheric chemistry to probe how such enormous planets form.
