More complex and subtle methods have added several dozen additional planets to the overall list, with 82 more planets (as of ...

Previously thought to be defined by simple cloud patterns, NASA's JWST has unveiled the astonishing complexity of SIMP 0136, ...

Eager to know more about how the exoplanet's oddball weather patterns came to be, an international team of scientists turned to the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope ...

Still, to confirm the detection, the team had to sift through decades of data, including imaging by the exoplanet-hunting ESPRESSO instrument on the Very Large Telescope in Chile. "We worked on ...

"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.

My research interests are in the direct imaging and characterization of exoplanets and their environments. I am the principle investigator of the PICTURE-D NASA balloon mission. I focus primarily on ...

A small NASA exoplanet probe now has a ride to Earth orbit. The agency announced on Monday afternoon (Feb. 10) that it has picked SpaceX to launch Pandora, a 716-pound (325-kilogram) satellite ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A Jupiter-like exoplanet, GJ 2126 b, has been detected orbiting an M-dwarf star using the radial velocity method with the HARPS spectrograph. This exoplanet has ...

HWO will use a combination of the direct imaging method to find the exoplanets and its spectroscopy instruments to analyze their respective atmospheres for biosignatures, specifically oxygen and ...

Exoplanets are the celestial bodies orbiting stars other than our Sun. Their small size makes them difficult to detect from Earth, particularly as they appear much dimmer than their parent stars ...

The discovery, made under extreme pressure and heat, could provide new insights into the composition of icy exoplanets and moons. The findings suggest plastic ice VII may have existed in Europa ...
