White dwarf stars could host habitable planets. Fast planetary rotation reduces cloud cover, keeping surface temperatures stable.

An international team of researchers has confirmed the existence of an exoplanet first identified by Oxford researcher Dr ...

Scientists from Oxford University have confirmed the discovery of HD 20794 d, a “super-Earth” exoplanet located 20 ...

Astronomers have discovered HD 20794 d, a potential Earth-like exoplanet just 20 light-years away. With a habitable zone ...

Scientists believe the exoplanet HD 20794 d, six times the mass of Earth, could harbour liquid water on its surface.

How would detecting methane help astronomers identify if exoplanets, or even exomoons, have life as we know it, or even as we ...

Around a star just 20 light-years from the Solar System, astronomers have confirmed the existence of what might be a ...

The white dwarf star's habitable zone—the region in which an exoplanet could host life-supporting liquid water, among other traits—is much closer to the star compared to that of other stars ...

For this reason, not much consideration has been given to these stars' ability to host habitable exoplanets," Shields said. "Our computer simulations suggest that if rocky planets exist in their ...

Earth' exoplanet, HD 20794 d, located just 20 light-years away, which could potentially host life. It resides in t ...

SETI scientists suggest that extraterrestrial civilizations could detect Earth through 'technosignatures' like planetary ...

Astronomers have detected a relatively close exoplanet orbiting in the habitable zone of its star, where temperatures are ...
