Using the now-retired Kepler space telescope, astronomers have discovered that larger planets grow up in more turbulent homes than smaller worlds.
The Kepler space telescope has helped us discover many potentially habitable exoplanets that may harbour life. How does it find them? How do we know these exoplanets are habitable? Could there really ...
A combination of cosmic processes shapes the formation of one of the most common types of planets outside of our solar system ...
IT’S been nearly 40 years since the first planet outside of our Solar System was discovered. Since then, more than 5,800 weird and wonderful worlds across 4,300 planetary systems have been ...

The shape of a planet's orbit is one of its fundamental properties, along with its size and distance from its host star. Earth has a nearly circular orbit, but some planets outside our solar system, ...
Planets change orbit shape around Neptune’s size. Metal-rich stars help giant planets form. Eccentric orbits suggest chaotic planet formation.
BYUH students share their understanding of exoplanets and what humanity’s enduring hunt for life outside the solar system ...
Combined with the precise knowledge of the space segment topology, Kepler can thus largely eliminate the main factors influencing signal-in-space errors. This leads to an unprecedented precision and a ...
