In the sky is a depiction of the orbital configuration of the 2M1510 system with the two brown dwarf stars in red orbiting one another, and the inferred exoplanet on a polar orbit in white. Within the ...

Researchers have developed a new coronagraph that could make it possible to see distant exoplanets obscured by light from their parent stars. Researchers have developed a new coronagraph -- an ...

Researchers developed a new coronagraph that could make it possible to see exoplanets that are normally obscured by light from their parent stars. The images show theoretical, experimental and ...

How can astronomers develop better methods for blocking the intense starlight of an exoplanetary system and reveal the exoplanets hiding underneath the glare? This is what a recent study published in ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) Imaging exoplanets with the solar gravitational lens (SGL) faces major technical challenges, including solar corona noise, the sun’s quadrupole moment, and ...

Astronomers have discovered that super-Earth exoplanets are more common across the universe than previously thought. While it can be relatively easy to locate worlds that orbit close to their star ...

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 ...

Thousands of exoplanets have been discovered, only a select few show promise. Here we look at some of the most habitable exoplanets ever discovered ranked through their similarity to Earth.

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Using the Korea Microlensing Telescope Network (KMTNet), an international team of researchers has discovered that super-Earth exoplanets are more common across the universe than ...
