It would orbit within Alpha Centauri A’s habitable zone, the starlight-bathed region where liquid water can persist on a ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have found strong evidence for a new exoplanet — one orbiting Alpha ...

In some of its most ambitious work yet, the James Webb Space Telescope looked to spot a planet in a potentially habitable ...

The closest exoplanets to the Solar System are around the red dwarf Proxima Centauri. This little star is orbiting two bigger ...

This discovery represents a major milestone in the search for exoplanets around our nearest Sun-like neighbour.

It's not easy to uncover exoplanets, largely lightless objects that either lurk in the dark void of space or are blown out by ...

Researchers may have discovered a gas giant orbiting the star Alpha Centauri A, and it appears to be in the star's habitable ...

Astronomers have used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to find strong evidence for a planet orbiting a star in the triple ...

Alpha Centauri A, four light-years from Earth, may host a gas giant. If confirmed, no Earthlike planets orbit in the star’s habitable zone.

A smudge of light spotted by the James Webb telescope near Alpha Centauri A could be the planet with the tightest orbit ever ...

The design for a 36 mile long spacecraft, called Chrysalis, includes libraries, tropical forests and structural manufacturing facilities, all supported by artificial gravity.

This low-cost mission concept was designed by a team from the University of Sydney, Australia, and aims to look for potentially-habitable exoplanets in the Alpha Centauri system using the ...
