Unpack those suitcases. According to a new study, the most Earth-like planet on our radar has one decidedly un-Earth-like feature: It’s super radioactive. The research, published Tuesday in the ...
When NASA scientists declared the planet-hunting Kepler telescope hopelessly crippled in the fall of 2013, the mission’s founding father and principal investigator Bill Borucki pointed out that its ...
Some 500 light-years away, a little planet basks comfortably in the heat of its sun. It's probably rocky – as the Earth is – and it's probably just the right temperature to boast liquid water. In ...
New research just found that the recently discovered "most Earth-like alien planet," Kepler-438b, could have been rendered uninhabitable by vast quantities of radiation. The planet's atmosphere is ...
One of the planets earmarked as potentially most Earth-like is dissuading guests, with the discovery of vast superflares rendering it inhospitable. Researchers had believed Kepler-438b to be the most ...
In the past decade or two, exoplanetary research has been booming as NASA’s Kepler telescope and its cohorts have found nearly 2000 exoplanets and 5000 promising candidates. Unsurprisingly, we have ...
Kepler-438b is an Earth-like exoplanet whose atmosphere might have been shed away by vast quantities of harmful radiation emitted by its parent Red Dwarf star, Kepler-438.Researchers from the ...
WASHINGTON – Earth has a few more near-twin planets outside our solar system, tantalizing possibilities in the search for extraterrestrial life. Astronomers announced Tuesday that depending on ...
