Astronomers discover giant alien planet 35 times more massive than Earth hiding in a known star system
The newfound exoplanet, called Kepler-139f, is a gigantic world roughly twice the mass of Neptune and 35 times the mass of Earth, and it takes 355 days to orbit its star, astronomers reported in a study published May 2 in The Astrophysical Journal Letters. Despite its giant size, Kepler-139f had evaded detection.
Scientists discover a 'second Earth' twice the size of our planet near a red dwarf star, 154 light-years away
Located just 154 light-years away, this planet is nearly twice the size of Earth and orbits a cool red dwarf star. Though not considered habitable due to its high temperatures, TOI-1846 b’s dense, water-rich composition and close orbit offer valuable insights into the formation and evolution of rocky planets beyond our solar system.
Astronomers discover monster exoplanet hiding in 'stellar fog' around young star
