The search for life however, is a little more involved than finding planets, measuring their location and distance around the star and figuring out their location within a habitable zone.
The planet is HD 209458 b, and nicknamed “Osiris” as it is a very hot and hostile world. Lets explore what we know about the planet
The fact that we’ve found a habitable planet candidate so soon after starting our search has important implications. More on today’s podcast
If we send humans to Mars, will they be able to survive? How hostile is the solar system for human exploration?
The search for life ia about finding out if a planet located in habitable zone and more other information to learn if life may be there.
Deep in the cosmos, NASA’s TESS has discovered four new worlds orbiting a pair of young stars that provides a glimpse of planetary evolution.
It’s not surprising that there’s a lot of interest in the topic of getting a good job in astronomy. What sorts of jobs can one get with a degree versus without one? Let’s discuss this on our first Astronomy Coffee Hangout in quite a while.
TRAPPIST-1e is a rocky, close-to-Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting within the habitable zone around the ultra-cool dwarf star.
Finding habitable worlds need a dedicated instrument that does nothing else but tries to locate and characterize them. That’s where the Habitable Worlds Observatory comes in
