Astronomers have detected a relatively close exoplanet orbiting in the habitable zone of its star, where temperatures are ...

White dwarf stars could host habitable planets. Fast planetary rotation reduces cloud cover, keeping surface temperatures stable.

Scientists believe the exoplanet HD 20794 d, six times the mass of Earth, could harbour liquid water on its surface.

An international team has confirmed the discovery of a super-Earth orbiting in the habitable zone of a nearby sun-like star.

Scientists have long overlooked white dwarfs as hosts for habitable exoplanets, assuming their lack of fusion would make life impossible. But new climate models challenge that idea, showing that ...

The Dynamically Stable Large Space Structures via Architected Metamaterials was granted a NIAC award by NASA at the beginning ...

Astronomers have discovered HD 20794 d, a potential Earth-like exoplanet just 20 light-years away. With a habitable zone ...

Is Earth really exceptional?  A new book seems to reaffirm that notion.  But given the right conditions, primitive life may be a mere byproduct of biophysics.

Explore the impact of stellar flares on the potential for alien life. Discover how higher levels of UV radiation can both ...
