In the vast, chilly expanse of space, a new planet has been spotted. This planet, named HD 137010 b, is about the same size as Earth. But don't pack your bags just yet. It's incredibly cold there. The planet is 150 light-years away from us. That's a distance that's hard to imagine. A group of scien
Hubble Space Telescope has captured something extraordinary: the aftermath of two massive space rock collisions near a young star named Fomalhaut. This isn't just any star; it's in our cosmic backyard, just 25 light-years away. That's a staggering 150 trillion kilometers, but in space terms, it's pr
Scientists have long thought that Earth-like planets need a rare cosmic event to form. They believed a nearby supernova explosion provided essential radioactive materials, like aluminum-26, to create planets like Earth. These materials heated early planetary building blocks, causing them to lose wat
In space, 25 light-years away, a star called Fomalhaut is making waves. Known as the "Eye of Sauron" due to its striking dust belt, this star has been the site of some incredible cosmic events. Over the past 20 years, astronomers have witnessed not one, but two massive collisions between rocky objec
The universe just got a lot more interesting with the discovery of a new class of super-Earths. These are rocky planets bigger than Earth but smaller than Neptune. They are not where scientists thought they would be. They are not close to their stars like most super-Earths. Instead, they are muc
