An extragalactic planet, also known as an extragalactic exoplanet or an extroplanet,[1][2][3] is a star -bound planet or rogue planet located outside of the Milky Way Galaxy. Due to the immense distances to such worlds, they would be very hard to detect directly.

Oct 25, 2021 · Fast fact: Extra-Galactic Planet? Astronomers have found evidence for a possible planet candidate in the M51 ("Whirlpool") galaxy, potentially representing what would be the first planet seen to transit a star outside of the Milky Way.

Oct 25, 2021 · Astronomers may have spotted the first known planet in another galaxy. The potential world, called M51-ULS-1b , orbits both a massive star and a dead star in the Whirlpool galaxy, about 28...

Oct 29, 2021 · Astronomers believe they’ve spotted the first extragalactic exoplanet beyond our own galaxy.

An extragalactic planet, known as an extragalactic exoplanet or an extroplanet, [1] [2] [3] is a star-bound planet or rogue planet located outside of the Milky Way Galaxy. Due to the very far distances to such worlds, they would be very hard to detect instantly.

Oct 31, 2021 · Astronomers have found evidence for a possible planet candidate in the M51 (“Whirlpool”) galaxy, representing what could be the first planet detected outside of the Milky Way. Chandra detected the temporary dimming of X-rays from a system where a massive star is in orbit around a neutron star or black hole (shown in the artist’s ...

Oct 25, 2021 · Signs of a planet transiting a star outside of the Milky Way galaxy may have been detected for the first time. This intriguing result, using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory, opens up a new window to search for exoplanets at greater distances than ever before.

Oct 25, 2021 · After a painstaking research effort combing through thousands of signals, a team led by Rosanne Di Stefano of the Harvard & Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics has determined that a huge dip in X-ray light from the Whirlpool Galaxy is …

An extragalactic planet, also known as an extragalactic extrasolar planet, is a planet that exists outside of the Milky Way Galaxy. Because of the huge distance between these worlds, these planets are almost impossible to detect with current technology.

Sep 24, 2020 · Now astronomers have found the first candidate planet in another galaxy. Since the first detection of the first exoplanet in 1992, astronomers have found thousands of others. Indeed, they estimate...
