Using the radial velocity method, an international team of astronomers has discovered a new extrasolar planet orbiting a nearby star known as GI 410. The newfound alien world was classified as a ...

Considering our middle-aged star, the sun, is 4.6 billion years old, the stellar parent of this clingy exoplanet (called HIP 67522) is a relative infant. This means it is bursting with energy.

The exoplanet, a planet beyond our solar system, has been dubbed TWA 7b after NASA's James Webb Space Telescope captured evidence of it.

In a monumental breakthrough for space exploration, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has unveiled its first-ever exoplanet, TWA 7b. This discovery is more than just another addition to the ...

When Star Wars debuted in 1977, astronomers had yet to confirm an exoplanet with the same orbital path as Skywalker’s home world. It would take another 16 years before experts located an actual ...

Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope to directly image a new exoplanet — represented by CC#1 in the image — within the three-ring debris disk surrounding the star TWA 7. A.-M ...

An exoplanet 60 light-years away from Earth, known as 14 Herculis c, is thought to be the coldest one yet found, researchers claim in a new study.

This illustration shows an exoplanet orbiting around two brown dwarfs –– objects bigger than gas-giant planets but too small to be proper stars. ESO/M. Kornmesser Astronomers have discovered a ...

A paper published in 2023 spurred discussion about whether life exists on an exoplanet named K2-18b. Two years later, the puzzle continues — and some scientists are expressing doubt.
