Gaia-5b is a brown dwarf orbiting the Gaia-5 star, around 134 light-years away from Earth. With a mass of around 21 Jupiters, Gaia-5b is more massive than a planet but too light to sustain nuclear ...

August 14, 2025, Mountain View, CA -- The SETI Institute awarded the Davie Postdoctoral Fellowship for AI/ML-driven exoplanet discovery to Isabel Angelo. Machine learning is changing the way we search ...

Using data from the European Space Agency's Gaia mission, scientists have found a huge exoplanet and a brown dwarf. This is the first time a planet has been uniquely discovered by Gaia's ability to ...

An international team of astronomers released the largest-ever compilation of exoplanet-detecting observations made using a technique called the radial velocity method. They demonstrated how these ...

Researchers have developed a new coronagraph that could make it possible to see distant exoplanets obscured by light from their parent stars. Researchers have developed a new coronagraph -- an optical ...

These days, researchers commonly discover exoplanets, or planets outside our solar system. But sometimes there’s a special discovery, like an exoplanet right in our backyard — and that’s the case with ...

The search for habitable exoplanets is a key priority and sits at the pinnacle of exoplanet science. The science community stated that clearly in the 2020 Survey on Astronomy and Astrophysics 2020 ...
