The Open Day will have stalls by external amateur astronomy and science popularisation groups, and for the first time, stalls by astronomy entrepreneurs, and book sellers as well.

It’s not a gorgeous picture you can hang up on your wall like a poster and say ... the one that I really can’t get over enough is exoplanets. What’s so cool about Gaia’s exoplanets ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A Jupiter-like exoplanet, GJ 2126 b, has been detected orbiting an M-dwarf star using the radial velocity method with the HARPS spectrograph. This exoplanet has ...

"Even the strongest hurricanes in the solar system seem calm in comparison." WASP-121 b is the definition of an "extreme" exoplanet — it's so hot that it rains droplets of liquid iron.

NASA discovered five "ultra-short-period" exoplanets orbiting their stars in under 24 hours, defying speed limits and challenging current planetary formation theories. A gas giant that orbits its ...

The discovery of new exoplanets can help scientists understand how planets form and evolve. Scientists from UNSW Sydney have located a potential new exoplanet -- a planet that orbits a star ...

Tylos (or WASP-121b) is a gaseous, giant exoplanet located some 900 light-years away in the constellation Puppis. Using the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), scientists ...

If the discovery is confirmed, this will be the fastest extrasolar planet, "exoplanet," system ever seen. "We think this is a so-called super-Neptune world orbiting a low-mass star at a distance ...

Scientists say they are rethinking how the weather works after creating a 3D map of an exoplanet 900 light-years away and discovering a world with jet streams fueling wild storms. WASP-121b ...

And astonishingly, it's managed to drag its exoplanet along, as the poor world hangs on for dear life. "We think this is a so-called super-Neptune world orbiting a low-mass star at a distance that ...

But about three decades ago astronomers discovered exoplanets circling stars that were not our own. In the years since, we have found thousands of them, shattering what we thought we knew about ...
