NASA has explored the space beyond Earth and our solar system with spacecraft like Voyagers 1 and 2, and how we’ve discovered ...

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, ...

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 ...

Some 800 km East of Bhutan is the city of Varanasi in India. In the 2566th year of the Buddhist era, human beings – members of the species Homo sapiens sapiens – total some eight billion individuals ...

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 ...

On a research trip up to a cemetery in Eldora, Amy Davis and Rikki Diana Pauley saw something strange in the night sky. “She notices it first, and then it blinked,” Davis said. “Almost ...

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

Gianluca Masi from the Virtual Telescope Project captured imagery of comet C/2022 E3 (ZTF). The comet's closest approach to Earth at 26.4 million miles (42.5 million km) away. Credit: Gianluca Masi / ...

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 ...

One group of experts now say that looking for life on water and oxygen-rich planets could be a waste of time.

General relativity helps explain the lack of planets around tight binary stars by driving orbital resonances that eject or destroy close-in worlds. This process naturally creates a “desert” of ...

Richard Carrington’s name has long been connected with the most intense solar storm ever recorded, but his face was unknown ...
