Astronomers around the world have confirmed over 6,000 exoplanets, a milestone reached in025. Billions more are waiting to be ...

Scientists have recently uncovered a fascinating new exoplanet a mere 30 light-years away from our solar system. What sets ...

These distant worlds are called exoplanets: planets that exist outside our solar system. Most of the exoplanets scientists have discovered so far orbit stars within the Milky Way, but some lie even ...

This planet, located about 700 light-years from Earth, is known for its remarkably short orbital period and extreme surface temperature. It orbits closely around its star, with an orbital radius only ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope are unraveling the mysteries of TRAPPIST-1e, an Earth-sized exoplanet 40 ...

JWST data hints that Trappist-1e may have an atmosphere. More transits will test if this world could support liquid water.

Any water present on a planet orbiting here can remain liquid, given the right atmospheric pressure. On planets orbiting ...

York University planetary scientist Dr. Charles-Édouard Boukaré discusses molten rocky exoplanets: rocky planets so close to ...

The indeterminate nature of the team's results means that JWST is far from finished with TRAPPIST-1e. The researchers hope to perform a deeper search for the planet's atmosphere, with each subsequent ...

To our surprise, a similar phenomenon of water vapor has also been observed on exoplanets far in the depths of the universe. K2-18b is an exoplanet located about 110 light-years from Earth. It is ...

One of the worlds in the TRAPPIST-1 system, a mere 40 light-years away, just might be clad in a life-supporting atmosphere.

The planet TRAPPIST-1e lies in its star’s Goldilocks zone, where water remains liquid – and an analysis suggests it might ...
