Astronomers are detecting hundreds of exoplanets — worlds that don't orbit the sun — each year. Here are some of the new 2024 ...

Groundbreaking research by UNLV geoscientist Oliver Tschauner and colleagues found diamonds pushed up from the Earth’s interior had traces of unique crystallized water called Ice-VII. The study, ...

With the arrival of winter comes a seasonal hazard that's slippery, invisible and deadly – black ice. Black ice, which is actually transparent, is the term for the thin coating of ice that can ...

The cloud’s relative closeness makes it a prime target for astronomers. But while the cloud offers deep insight into the formation and evolution of young stars, their planets are usually a closed book ...

Hurt, K. Miller (Caltech/IPAC) It’s rare that 3 million years old would be considered young, but that’s the case for a recently discovered exoplanet. The study of planets outside our solar ...

To date, over 5,500 exoplanets — planets that orbit stars other than the sun — have been discovered, and a large portion of those alien worlds have been observed via something called "the ...

Astronomers have discovered a transiting exoplanet — named IRAS 04125+2902b — orbiting a 3-million-year-old, 0.7-solar-mass protostar in the Taurus Molecular Cloud. IRAS 04125+2902b has a radius of ...

A planet has been found orbiting a three-million-year-old star. Better still, it transits across the star’s face from our perspective, offering opportunities to see the starlight passing through ...

Since astronomers first began detecting exoplanets – planets beyond our solar system – in the 1990s, they have come across thousands of worlds, large and small. But few have ever been found as ...

Leading the pack is the popular Japanese RPG adventure series Final Fantasy VII Rebirth with a total number of seven nominations. Following the critical success of Rebirth, released earlier this ...

Today, we know of more than 5,000 exoplanets: planets outside our solar system that orbit other stars. While the effort to discover new worlds goes on, we’re steadily learning more about the ...

Many models used for running atmospheric calculations of early Earth and Earth-like exoplanets are based on a one-dimensional (1D) photochemical model developed at Penn State, explained Aoshuang ...
