Goldilocks Stars Are Best Places to Look for Life
In the search for life beyond Earth, astronomers look for planets in a star's "habitable zone" — sometimes nicknamed the "Goldilocks zone" — where temperatures are just right for liquid water to exist on a planet's surface.Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System
Keck Observatory's Newest Planet Hunter Puts Its Eye on the Sky
State-of-the-art instrument will find and study missing smaller planets.California Institute of Technology
Discovery Alert: Massive Planet is a 'Hulk' among Super-Earths
New observations show that a previously identified exoplanet, TOI-1075 b, is among the most massive super-Earths found so far.Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System
Super-Earth | Planet Types – Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System
Super-Earths – a class of planets unlike any in our solar system – are more massive than Earth yet lighter than ice giants like Neptune and Uranus, and can be made of gas, rock or a combination.Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar System
NASA's Chandra: Planets Can Be Anti-Aging Formula for Stars
Planets can force their host stars to act younger than their age, according to a new study of multiple systems using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory.Beth Ridgeway (NASA)
