NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has been used to discover Earth-size planet TOI 700 e. It is "orbiting ...

In new research, University of California, Irvine astronomers describe how more than 200 known exoplanets are likely much larger than previously thought. It's a finding that could change which distant ...

NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite has identified TOI-4616 b, an Earth-sized planet transiting a cool M4 dwarf star in the solar neighborhood. The discovery, detailed in a new preprint, adds ...

A star's magnetic field must be considered in order to correctly determine the characteristics of exoplanets from observations by space telescopes such as Kepler, James Webb, or PLATO. Researchers ...

A recent study published in The Astronomical Journal uses data from the NASA K2 mission to examine the reasons behind why some exoplanets, specifically sub-Neptune exoplanets, are losing their ...

Planets around massive B-type stars at intermediate orbital distances remain largely unexplored. Here, the authors show that four evolved planet-hosting stars, HD 2952, HD 120084, HIP 65891, and HIP ...

An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new exoplanet orbiting a solar-type star. The newfound alien world, designated TOI-1135 b is young, hot and comparable in size to Saturn ...

Astronomers have detected over 5,800 confirmed exoplanets. One extreme class is ultra-hot Jupiters, of particular interest because they can provide a unique window into planetary atmospheric dynamics.

700 light years away from Earth in the constellation Virgo, the planet WASP-39b orbits the star WASP-39. The gas giant, which takes little more than four days to complete one orbit, is one of the best ...
