Scientists Discover 'Potentially Habitable' Earth-Like Planet Candidate
If confirmed, this exoplanet would be the only known rocky world in the habitable zone of a Sun-like star.

Kepler Data Reveals Earth-Size Exoplanet on the Edge of Its Star’s Habitable Zone
Scientists studying Kepler telescope data have identified HD 137010 b, a possible Earth-sized planet orbiting a Sun-like star. While the planet follows a year-long orbit and may sit near the habitable zone, limited starlight could leave it colder than Mars. Future observations will determine whether this icy world truly exists.

VLT’s GRAVITY Instrument Detects ‘Tug’ from Colossal Exomoon; Could Be Largest Natural Satellite Ever Found
Astronomers have spotted a subtle orbital wobble around the massive exoplanet HD 206893 B, hinting at the presence of a gigantic moon nearly half Jupiter’s mass. If confirmed, it would be unlike any moon known, potentially redefining how scientists distinguish between moons, planets, and brown dwarfs.

NASA Finds Thick Atmosphere On Rare Rocky Exoplanet
Scientists are now analysing the entire data in depth to create a complete map of the temperature around the planet and better understand the composition of its atmosphere.

Chandra Spots Distant Baby Planet Losing Its Atmosphere Under Intense X-ray Assault
NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory has captured a rare glimpse of TOI 1227 b, a young, Jupiter-sized exoplanet losing its atmosphere under intense stellar radiation. Just 8 million years old, the planet is shrinking rapidly as X-rays strip away its mass. Scientists warn it may become a barren rocky core in about a billion years.

Astronomers Discover "Water-Rich Super-Earth" Twice As Big As Our Planet
Scientists have discovered a new "super-Earth" that is located about 154 light-years away and is nearly twice as big and four times as massive as our planet.

Coldest Exoplanet Orbiting A Dead Star Found By Scientists
Scientists said it was the first intact exoplanet to have been found in the forbidden zone of a star.

Scientists Reportedly Found a Potential Sign of Life on a Distant Planet: What You Need to Know
The expert team of scientists from the University of Cambridge, UK, has made a shocking statement by claiming that there are signs of life at a distant planet, K2- 18 b. The scientists have discovered DMS and DMDS molecules in the plant’s atmosphere. However, the claims are being questioned worldwide.

Chiron's Unique Surface and Coma: Key Insights from Recent Space Research
Recent research has provided critical insights into Chiron, a celestial body between Jupiter and Neptune. Through observations by the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists discovered volatile ices and gases such as carbon dioxide and methane on its surface. Chiron’s gaseous coma offers researchers the opportunity to study gases from below its su...
