In 2020, a study confirmed that two planets orbited the nearby red dwarf, GJ 887. Now, astronomers have confirmed the ...

Astronomers have found an exoplanet that could serve as a benchmark in future studies. It's a rocky planet orbiting an M-type star, and though these planets are plentiful, this one could serve as a ...

Nearby red dwarfs are turning into rich laboratories for studying small rocky worlds. One such star now stands out as a system with four or more planets, including at least one in the habitable zone ...

President Donald Trump may be one step closer to making Pluto great again. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman endorsed the idea of Trump making Pluto a planet again in an exclusive interview with the ...

An isolated people, with an ancient culture, and technology well in advance of the rest of the world - that could equally describe the dwarves of Mounthaven, or China from the perspective of a 15th ...

A new study by the SETI Institute suggests that the alien signals might be right here, surrounding us all of the time, and we're just unable to pick them out.

For four decades, many SETI experiments have focused on finding sharp spikes in frequency but the new study says signals may not stay narrow as they travel away from their home system.

The year 2006 was full of cultural shock waves: Twitter was loosed upon the internet, Pluto was declared a dwarf planet, and Neil LaBute released his reimagining of Robin Hardy’s 1973 folk horror film ...

We may be missing alien radio signals because they have become smeared beyond the narrowband detectors that SETI utilizes, a new study suggests.

Astronomers have observed a planetary system that challenges current planet formation theories, with a rocky planet that formed beyond the orbits of its gaseous neighbors, possibly after much of the ...

Radio silence has long puzzled those searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, but the answer might lie much closer to the source of potential signals than previously thought. Conditions around ...

New SETI research suggests space weather like solar winds could be interfering with alien radio signals, making them harder to detect.
