We know that in space, no one can hear you scream. But what would things sound like on another planet?
Tucked inside a quiet solar system, in the area of sky outlined by the constellation Aquarius, orbits a planet named TRAPPIST-1d, the third of seven planets in a system. More about this planet today with Deep Astronomy
Here’s a familiar question: How’s the weather? We’re familiar with the weather on Earth. How about exoplanet? for the first time in history, astronomers can now answer that question. Here’s the story
This month is indulgent and ranty! There is a big dive into the huge aurora display in May, talk of new exoplanets and old ones vanishing. The usual skyguide and this months history moment is all about X rays.
There are planets in orbit around stars outside our solar system – and even rogue planets. But finding them is very hard. They are small and dim. But ideally, we’d like to see them directly, in our telescopes. Is that possible?
Most of the exoplanets we’ve found are around stars, where they belong. But a few have been found free-floating in interstellar space. How do they form and how can we learn more about them?
In our galaxy, there are many planets that wander alone in the dark, without a star to orbit. Some of these rogue planets could have moons which remain in tow, and these moons could be more than just cold and barren rocks.
Today’s Travelers in the Night discuss about the neighboring world Proxima Centauri and the monsoon for asteroid hunters.
New research discovered that TRAPPIST-1e’s atmosphere is being stripped by strong electric currents, quashing some hopes that the world is habitable.
