The earliest formation of planets around a star has been captured by our long-range telescopes, according to international researchers.
The James Webb Space Telescope has eye spied two small exoplanets orbiting a young Sun-like star, a mere 310 light years away, say international researchers.
On a quest to understand how planets are formed – and ultimately how Earth fits into the cosmic picture – astronomers have uncovered the chemical composition of an exoplanet 850 lightyears away with unprecedented precision.
The discovery of new exoplanets can help scientists understand how planets form and evolve.
International researchers have found a giant planet transiting a very young star, in research that indicates this could be the youngest transiting planet found to date.
Scientists studying the Trappist-1 system have made a discovery that likely dashes the hopes of either colonisation or finding life on the exoplanets.
