Astronomers unveil first direct image of young exoplanet just 63 light-years away
An international team of researchers has recently obtained the first direct image of the exoplanet Beta Pictoris c (B Pic c), confirming its existence since its indirect discovery in 2019. The “baby” exoplanet, which is estimated to be around 18 million years old, is the second planet known to orbit the star Beta Pictoris. The star […]

Model for plasma flow on the Sun reveals secrets behind sunspots and other solar phenomena
Scientists have studied the Sun for a long time. But solar phenomena such as sunspots have remained a mystery. Researchers from the University of Washington attempted to solve the puzzle by creating a model of the Sun’s plasma flow. They showed that a thin layer beneath its surface plays a vital role in the formation of sunspots and other solar features. This […]

Researchers spot 2 new Earth-like planets orbiting a tiny star located about 12.5 light-years from our Solar System
Astronomers believe that they have found two new Earth-like exoplanets situated within their host star’s habitable zone, or the area around a star that can support the existence of liquid water. These are the conclusions of the scientists who have been observing the star known as Teegarden’s Star, an ultra-cool dwarf that sits just 12.5 light-years […]

Do the rules of environmental protection extend to exoplanets beyond our solar system?
A German researcher did not believe it was possible to justify the environmental protection of planets outside our solar system on the grounds of potential use by humankind in the future. He also believed it was irrelevant to regulate the environments of exoplanets that can support life if the same worlds happened to be lifeless in the first […]

What you need to know about the Oort Cloud, a giant shell of icy bodies that encircle the solar system
Humans could one day develop sufficiently-advanced space travel that can reach other stars. As they leave Earth behind, those interstellar starships must pass through the Oort Cloud that encloses the solar system, an article in Space.com explained. This huge intrasolar shell is inhabited by numerous celestial bodies. Some of these frozen rocks can match the […]
