The telescope primarily detects light in the infrared in order to observe sources such as the first galaxies and protostars.

A newly identified planet candidate, HD 137010 b, looks strikingly Earth-like in size and orbit — but it may be colder than Mars due to its dimmer star. If it has a thick enough atmosphere, though, ...

Astronomers have flagged a tantalizing candidate for a frozen twin of Earth, a world known as HD 137010 b that appears to ...

The candidate is coined HD 137010 b. It would orbit a K-type dwarf star approximately 146 light-years from Earth. The evidence comes from a single transit pattern seen in K2 data from 2017: the star ...

Using HARPS and HARPS-N spectrographs, astronomers have observed a nearby K-type star designated HD 176986, known to host two ...

A planet that looks faintly familiar has emerged from old space telescope data, though it may be far from welcoming. Scientists analysing observations.

SIGNS of an alien planet that’s about the same size as Earth have been picked by up a Nasa telescope. Scientists say it might ...

In a groundbreaking discovery, astronomers have identified a possible rocky exoplanet named HD 137010b, located 146 light-years away. Dubbed the 'cold Earth', this candidate world orbits a K-type ...

The search for extrasolar planets resembling Earth constantly yields new finds. Such is the case with HD 137010 b, a ...

A new candidate exoplanet appears to almost uncanny similarities to Earth — but may differ in at least one major way.

Astronomers witnessed a star emitting as much energy in mere moments as our sun puts out in a few months. The dramatic ...

A possible rocky exoplanet referred to as a 'cold Earth' that could orbit on the outer edge of the habitable zone has been ...
