Located around 100 light-years away from Earth, the exoplanet is shrouded in a thick envelope of steam. This world, designated GJ 9827 d, is around twice the size of Earth, three times more ...

David Armstrong, Associate Professor of Physics at Warwick, commented: “Our work to observe this new structure in space is highly significant in helping us map the exoplanet landscape.

Exoplanets, or planets which reside outside of the Solar System, can be wild and extremely unpredictable places. Now a planet ...

Astronomers have discovered a new feature in the distribution of planets beyond the solar system, and this finding could help us understand the dynamics that determine the formation of exoplanets ...

Astronomers had to beat the clock to see the exoplanet before it disappeared for a decade. The James Webb Space Telescope has directly imaged its lowest mass extrasolar planet outside the solar ...

Matthews et al. overcame these difficulties by using MIRI to detect mid-infrared radiation from what could be the coldest and oldest exoplanet ever imaged. The age range of its star, ε Indi A ...

This newly discovered exoplanet designated as Barnard b [2] has ... 1.5 billion cosmic objects dazzle in the largest infrared Milky Way map ever created.] Barnard’s star is a red dwarf about ...

Astronomers in Poland have discovered a nearby exoplanet more than 11 times the mass of Jupiter, comfortably putting it in the pantheon of the most massive known worlds. The object is a cold super ...

Artist's illustration of the exoplanet WASP-107 b based on transit observations from NASA's James Webb Space Telescope as well as other space- and ground-based telescopes, led by Matthew Murphy of ...

Astronomers have observed the atmosphere of a hot and uniquely inflated exoplanet using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. Astronomers from the University of Arizona, along with an international ...

The extrasolar planet or "exoplanet" in question is WASP-107 b, which orbits an orange star smaller than the sun located around 210 light-years away. Discovered in 2017, WASP-107 b is 94% the size of ...
