A newly discovered gas giant, called TOI-6894b, orbiting a low-mass red dwarf star defies existing models of planet formation ...
Giant planets are not rare per se — after all, we have four in our own solar system. Such large worlds are, however, rarely ...
orbiting the red dwarf star TOI-6894, a pairing that defies current planetary formation theories. This planet, slightly larger than Saturn but half its mass, orbits its star every three days ...
A Saturn-sized exoplanet, TOI-5573 b, has been detected orbiting an M-dwarf star about 606 light years away. With a mass of 0.35 M J and a radius of 0.87 R J , it has a low density of 0.66 g/cm ...
Astronomers at University of Sheffield observed rings around a Pluto-sized dwarf planet called Quaoar, beyond Neptune, with rings farther from the dwarf planet than Saturn’s iconic rings.
Alien planets in orbit around red dwarfs, and even rogue planets with no stars to call home, might have surface oceans loaded with organic compounds, making them similar to Saturn's moon Titan ...
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), an international team of astronomers has performed high-resolution observations of an M-dwarf star ... of a Saturn-mass planet ...
