Discover what exist in the universe
Proxima Centauri, our closest stellar neighbor, offers an intriguing case study in stellar behavior and its implications for exoplanet habitability. With its intense starspot cycles and powerful flares, this red dwarf challenges our understanding of magnetic fields and atmospheric retention on orbiting planets like Proxima b. As we examine Proxima […]
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is reshaping our understanding of the cosmos. From the early universe's galaxies to the atmospheres of distant exoplanets, JWST's observations are providing unprecedented insights. This article examines the telescope's groundbreaking discoveries, offering a comprehensive look at how these findings challenge and refine our knowledge […]
Webb's Groundbreaking Discoveries in Exoplanet Atmospheres The James Webb Space Telescope has made significant discoveries in exoplanet atmospheres. Using transmission spectroscopy, Webb detected unusual chemical markers in the TRAPPIST-1 system, 40 light-years away. High concentrations of oxygen, methane, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) were identified on several Earth-sized planets. CFCs are particularly […]
Discovery of Proxima b: Earth's Closest Exoplanet Neighbor Proxima b, an Earth-sized exoplanet, orbits Proxima Centauri, the closest star system to our sun at 4.2 light-years away. This discovery excites scientists due to its location within the habitable zone, with an orbital period of 11.2 days. The High Accuracy Radial […]
