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 […]

NASA’s exoplanet hunter has discovered an Earth-sized alien world
The TESS space telescope has taken its first step in catching up to the massive achievements of its predecessor, Kepler. The NASA-operated spacecraft has recently found its first Earth-sized exoplanet. The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has spotted a planet circling the dwarf star called HD 21749, which is 53 light-years away from Earth. This […]

Scientists bewildered by “mysterious crystals” found in the core of giant alien planets
Strange crystals might form in the incredibly hot and pressurized cores of exoplanets in other star systems. Researchers think that these mysterious mineral formations may determine the environmental conditions on the surface of the planet, including the ability to support life. The planets of our solar system fall into one of two groups: They are […]

Does Mars have an active groundwater system? Scientists say YES
Liquid water had long since deserted the surface of Mars, leaving only the faint marks of its passage in the form of dried-out channels, lake-beds, and valleys. But researchers said that the Red Planet might harbor flowing water hundreds of meters underground. Previous studies have indicated that the Martian south pole contained lakes of liquid […]

Scientists develop Habitable Zone Planet Finder to help identify planets that orbit cool stars
A group of scientists from the Penn State University built a new astronomical spectrograph which provides precise infrared signals from nearby stars. This new technology, called the Habitable Zone Planet Finder (HPF), will allow scientists and astronomers to detect habitable planets well outside the solar system that have liquid water. The HPF is currently housed […]

The moon has plenty of water, according to new study
Astronomers and experts in other fields have been studying the moon closely for several decades now. Now a new study, which was published in the journal Nature Geoscience, shows that previous assumptions about the water content of the moon may be flat-out wrong. Instead of having water in certain regions or types of terrains, the […]
