Astronomers have long puzzled over why all of the planets in our Solar System have slightly slanted orbits around the Sun. But Yale University planetary...
Two new papers in the Astronomical Journal show that in some multiplanet systems, giant planets tend to kick their smaller neighbors out of orbit and wreak...
Young moving stellar groups are the best targets for direct imaging of exoplanets and four massive Jupiter-like planets have been already discovered in...
Using data from TRAPPIST-South/North, SPECULOOS, and MuSCAT3 facilities, astronomers have discovered an unusual Jupiter-sized exoplanet orbiting the red...
The giant planet 8 Ursae Minoris b (also known as Halla) orbits the core-helium-burning red giant star 8 Ursae Minoris (Baekdu). At a distance of only...
Using data from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and several ground-based telescopes, astronomers have detected and characterized...
Using data from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and several ground-based telescopes, astronomers have discovered and confirmed a...
K2-290A, the primary star in the triple stellar system K2-290, is tilted by 124 degrees compared with the orbits of both of its known planets, and has...
A puffy gas giant slightly larger than Jupiter has been discovered orbiting the early M-type dwarf star TOI-1899, thanks to new data from NASA’s Transiting...
An international team of astronomers has discovered a warm giant exoplanet orbiting the bright star TOI-677.
An artist’s impression of the warm Jupiter...
