One of seven Earth-sized planets, TRAPPIST-1d, caught the attention of NASA researchers and is one of the promising planets ...

When astronomers search for planets that could host liquid water on their surface, they start by looking at a star's habitable zone. Water is a key ingredient for life, and on a planet too close to ...

A first ever detection of a coronal mass ejection from a small red dwarf could have big consequences for life on any nearby ...

Can planets orbiting M dwarf stars become habitable, or does the star’s activity prevent it? This is what a recent study ...

This artist’s concept shows the volatile red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1 and its four most closely orbiting planets, all of which have been observed by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). JWST has yet ...

Could scientists find life in the clouds of exoplanet atmospheres? This is what a manuscripton the arXiv preprint server hopes to address as a team of researchers investigate how the biosignatures of ...

The James Webb Space Telescope will look for biosignatures and more when it observers the Trappist-1 system's rocky planets. Credit: NASA Pentagon removes key protections for civilian workers, moves ...

(CNN, KYMA) - There might be an Earth-like atmosphere on an exoplanet located 40 light years away from us. Astronomers said the planet, similar to Earth in size, is part of the TRAPPIST-1 system. The ...

Chinese Astronomers Search for Extraterrestrial Signals in TRAPPIST-1 System Chinese team uses FAST, the world's most sensitive radio telescope, to search for technosignatures from the potentially ...

Astronomers have taken a huge leap towards discovering habitable worlds, and the world now eagerly anticipates a rocky planet orbiting a faint star 40 light-years from home. Scientists are homing in ...
