A team from the University of Bern and the National Center of Competence in Research (NCCR) PlanetS has developed a ...

Every now and then, space surprises us– and this time, the buzz is all about four small rocky planets found around one of our closest stellar neighbours. No, they’re not Earth 2.0. But they do ...

NASA has discovered a new world, named Gliese 12 b. It is roughly the size of Earth, lies in the habitable zone, and orbits every 12.8 days.

Even more exciting, the model suggests that some Earth-like planets could form in the habitable zone—the region around a star ...

An elusive Earth-like planet in our solar system could finally be discovered within the next few years. Known as Planet Nine or Planet X, it is a hypothetical planet that has long been rumoured to ...

Proctor/J. Pollard A quartet of Earth-like worlds, each about 20% to 30% the size of our planet, circle one of our closest stellar neighbors, a new study reveals. The rocky alien worlds are close ...

Beyond explaining these observations, the model also allows for predictive analysis of planetary formation and even hints at the potential for other Earth-like planets. Izidoro said although it ...

The model developed by the team found that white dwarfs can fuel both processes simultaneously, making Earth-like planets possible around white dwarfs. This discovery could help widen the focus of ...
