Quantum coronagraph filters stellar light using spatial photon sorting New tech may image Earth-like exoplanets near ...

A new device uses quantum optics to filter out starlight in real time — bringing scientists closer to directly observing ...

A coronagraph blocks the light from the star that would outshine both images. Instead, a new object becomes visible to the top left. This source is the exoplanet Eps Ind Ab. The background was ...

Even at the present time, when humanity possesses extremely modern giant ground observatories, as well as advanced space ...

In a first for astronomers surveying the depths of space, carbon dioxide has been detected on an exoplanet – that is, a planet lying outside our solar system. Thanks to the coronagraph images ...

"Webb's new images of two iconic systems ... Normally, the Webb telescope only detects exoplanets by glimpsing them when they cross in front of their host star. This "transiting method" was ...

NASA has taken to its website to detail newly snapped images of an exoplanet called Epsilon Indi Ab, which the space agency says is one of coldest exoplanets it has observed to date. An ...

Although the name isn’t so moving, its potential is. “Of all currently known temperate exoplanets, LHS 1140 b could well be our best bet to one day indirectly confirm liquid water on the ...

An international team of astronomers reports the discovery of a new giant exoplanet around an M-dwarf star (GEMS). The ...

They also confirm Webb can do more than infer atmospheric composition from starlight measurements—it can directly analyze the chemistry of exoplanet atmospheres. The Webb Telescope captured its first ...

For years, the exoplanet orbiting more than 120 light-years away has captivated scientists who have considered it among the best potential life-harboring ocean worlds. The latest findings on K2 ...
