"I do not believe we yet have convincing evidence of the presence of DMS in K2-18b's atmosphere." In 2023, debate erupted in the astronomy community about whether life could exist on an exoplanet ...
"Even the strongest hurricanes in the solar system seem calm in comparison." WASP-121 b is the definition of an "extreme" exoplanet — it's so hot that it rains droplets of liquid iron.
According to a new paper published in the journal Nature, astronomers have mapped the 3D structure of the layered atmosphere of one such ultra-hot Jupiter-size exoplanet, revealing powerful winds ...
Indian researchers have discovered a dense sub-Saturn exoplanet, TOI-6038A b, which is 78.5 times the mass of Earth. This exoplanet orbits a bright, metal-rich F-type star every 5.83 days. The ...
Tylos (or WASP-121b) is a gaseous, giant exoplanet located some 900 light-years away in the constellation Puppis. Using the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), scientists ...
This piece of American history will soon be part of the celebration overseas to mark 80 years of freedom from Nazi Germany.
And astonishingly, it's managed to drag its exoplanet along, as the poor world hangs on for dear life. "We think this is a so-called super-Neptune world orbiting a low-mass star at a distance that ...
Scientists from UNSW Sydney have located a potential new exoplanet -- a planet that orbits a star outside of our solar system -- using a technique known as 'transit timing variation'. In research ...
Riyadh: Saudi Arabia Thursday February 20, 2025 launched new Riyal symbol. King Salman approved the official symbol for the Saudi Riyal, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the Kingdom’s ...
The project will focus on running the models to explain transit data gathered by JWST. When an exoplanet transits in front of its star, some of the starlight will pass through the planet’s atmosphere.
To uncover the 3D structure of the exoplanet's atmosphere, the team used the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO's VLT to combine the light of its four large telescope units into a single signal.
