A new, Earth-sized planet has been discovered only 90 light-years away from us. In astronomical terms, that’s right next door. What’s more, it might be capable of supporting life.
In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified TOI-1846 b, a super-Earth exoplanet located 154 light-years away.
Astronomers have discovered an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting a star with a lifespan 100 times greater than the Sun. Speculoos-3b is 55 light years away – more then 10 times further than the ...
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has been used to discover Earth-size planet TOI 700 e. It is "orbiting ...
In a new study, a team of astrophysicists, including two researchers at CU Boulder, have discovered a small and rocky world orbiting a star far from Earth—similar to our own planet, perhaps, but much ...
The newfound exoplanet, named SPECULOOS-3 b, is a rocky planet roughly 55 light-years from Earth.It zips around its host star every 17 hours, but days and nights on the planet are endless ...
A potentially habitable Earth-size planet was discovered just 40 light-years away Dubbed Gliese 12 b, the planet takes 12.8 days to orbit a star that is 27% of the sun’s size.
A team of astronomers have found a potentially habitable exoplanet about 40 light-years away in the constellation Pisces. Exoplanet Gliese 12 b is slightly smaller than Earth–about the size of ...
One of the smallest, coolest stars found to have planets of any kind—just 86 light-years from the solar system—appears to have an Earth-like volcanic world. The planet, called LP 791-18 d, is ...
A team of astronomers believe they may have discovered a new dwarf planet—just like Pluto—on the edge of our solar system. The object—which orbits out beyond Neptune—has been named "2017 OF201" by the ...
