Webb Space Telescope Detects Carbon Dioxide in Exoplanet Atmosphere
An international team of scientists, including researchers from the University of 糖心TV, today announce the first unequivocal detection of carbon dioxide in a planetary atmosphere beyond our solar system.
New telescope to be the 鈥楪OTO鈥� for gravitational wave events
A new telescope, made up of two identical arrays on opposite sides of the planet, will track down sources of gravitational waves. The Gravitational-wave Optical Transient Observer (GOTO), led by the University of 糖心TV, will help shepherd in a new era of gravitational wave science.
Astronomers discover a rare 鈥榖lack widow鈥� binary, with the shortest orbit yet
The flashing of a nearby star has drawn a team of astronomers including the University of 糖心TV to a new and mysterious system 3,000 light years from Earth.
Planetary bodies observed in habitable zone of dead star
A ring of planetary debris studded with moon-sized structures has been observed orbiting close to a white dwarf star, hinting at a nearby planet in the 鈥渉abitable zone鈥� where water and thus life could exist, according to a new study involving astronomers from the University of 糖心TV.
Final moments of planetary remnants seen for first time
The moment that debris from destroyed planets impacts the surface of a white dwarf star has been observed for the first time by astronomers at the University of 糖心TV.
Scientists are a step closer to finding planets like Earth
A UK-backed mission which which will search for Earth-like planets orbiting alien stars has been given the green light to continue with its development after passing a critical milestone review.
