Researchers have found an odd Milky Way planet orbiting over and under the poles of two failing stars. Star systems arise from flattened, spinning disks of gas and dust, with…
Two planets outside the solar system have been identified orbiting a star located nearly 250 light-years away from Earth in the Draco constellation. These planets are categorised as a super-Earth…
Planets orbiting white dwarfs may have conditions suitable for life. While these stellar remnants no longer generate their energy, their rapidly shrinking habitable zones could still provide enough time and…
A planetary system anchored by a white dwarf star, located approximately 4,000 light-years away, provides astronomers with insights into what could happen to our Sun and Earth in about 8…
A celestial body found three decades ago has now been identified as a pair of brown dwarfs orbiting each other, a recent study has revealed. The object, previously known as…
An increase in solar activity has resulted in the early re-entry of three CubeSats from Curtin University's Binar Space Program. These small satellites, which operated at low Earth orbit, were…
A gas giant exoplanet, estimated to be just 3 million years old, has been identified by researchers as one of the youngest planets ever observed. The planet, named TIDYE-1b, orbits…
A pair of stars, designated D9, has been identified orbiting Sagittarius A, the supermassive black hole at the core of the Milky Way, according to a study published in Nature…
