The atmospheres of exoplanets have been a focal point of the field lately, with the James Webb Space Telescope taking a look at as many as it can manage. But time on the world's most powerful space ...

Relatedly, astronomers may have just pushed the upper size limit of what counts as a planet.

A distant star system with four super-sized gas giants has revealed a surprise. Thanks to JWST’s powerful vision, astronomers detected sulfur in their atmospheres — a chemical clue that they formed ...

NASA found possible Earth-sized exoplanet HD 137010 b, 146 light-years away. HD 137010 b is much colder than Earth, with surface temps near -68°C. More data is needed to confirm HD 137010 b as a true ...

Only 11.4 light-years away, two exoplanets have been detected around a neighboring star. One of them, Gl725Bc, is located in ...

Astronomers may have discovered a new Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting a Sunlike star just 146 light-years away. Before you pack a suitcase, however, there’s a catch: even if the find is confirmed, the ...

Of the 6,000 exoplanets known, a very thin slice of them are in the geometry required to perform a deceitfully simple experiment: observe a planet cross its star and read the atmospheric chemistry ...

Astronomers have found a unique planetary system orbiting a red dwarf star. The system includes a rocky planet situated beyond its gaseous siblings, contradicting existing planet formation theories.

WASHINGTON — Psychology students at Brooklyn College are being taught about whiteness, taking BuzzFeed quizzes on their privileges, and enduring lectures about microaggressions — in a “deeply divisive ...

Artist's concept of exoplanet candidate HD 137010 b, dubbed a "cold Earth". Kepler telescope data helped identify Earth-like planet candidate HD 137010 b HD 137010 b orbits a Sun-like star about 150 ...
