Scientists detected the planet, designated TOI-3261 b, using NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite ( TESS ). This ...

Researchers are preparing to study the atmospheres of Earth-sized exoplanets, focusing on distinguishing those similar to ...

NASA's new Landolt mission, launching in 2029, will orbit an artificial star around Earth to enhance stellar and planetary ...

With the discovery of planets beyond our solar system 25 years ago, exoplanet research has expanded dramatically, with new state-of-the-art ground-based and space-based missions dedicated to their ...

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

Over the course of two years, our newest planet-hunter @NASA_TESS will scan 85% of the sky to find planets outside of our solar system, known as exoplanets. Watch & learn more about this mission ...

To detect exoplanets that orbit further out, an upcoming NASA mission, the Roman Space Telescope, will use gravitational microlensing, in which a nearby star will bend and focus light from a ...

As newer exoplanets amenable to exoplanet characterization are discovered with missions such as TESS and PLATO, we will use our expertise with HST data analysis to develop and apply novel observing ...

But the US space agency-led mission will probably only get to look at perhaps 150-200 exoplanets in its first five years of operation because of all the other demands on its time from astronomers.

In the next decade, researchers will start probing the atmosphere of planets as small as Earth and Venus orbiting nearby ...

We are developing new techniques, models and theories to understand the conditions for habitability and for remote sensing of biosignatures. We design and operate exoplanet space missions and exploit ...

"If trying to explain how three super puffs formed in one system wasn’t challenging enough, now we have to explain a fourth ...
