The triple star system LTT 1445, at a distance of 22.5 light-years, hosts some of the nearest rocky planets.
This Chandra image shows the LTT 1445 system:...
Methylated gases are made when organisms add a carbon and three hydrogen atoms to an undesirable chemical element. Called methylation, this process can...
Astronomers using NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) have discovered a Jovian planet orbiting the M4-type dwarf TOI-5205. Their paper...
Exoplanets smaller than Neptune are common around red dwarf (M-dwarf) stars, and many of those that transit their host stars constitute the bulk of known...
