Four Sub-Earth Exoplanets Discovered Orbiting Barnard's Star
Using the MAROON-X and ESPRESSO instruments, astronomers discovered four sub-Earth exoplanets orbiting Barnard's Star, the nearest single star system to Earth, challenging previous assumptions about planetary formation around red dwarfs and advancing the search for habitable exoplanets.

Biosphere Could Extend Planetary Habitability by Billions of Years
A new study suggests that planets near the inner edge of their star's habitable zone could remain habitable for up to two billion years longer than previously thought due to life's ability to regulate atmospheric CO2 and prevent a runaway greenhouse effect, expanding the search for extraterrestrial ...

Jupiter's Polar Cyclones Linked to Io's Volcanic Activity
Months-long, Earth-sized cyclones rage at Jupiter's poles, caused by magnetic vortices drawing up hazy gases from deep within the atmosphere, a process linked to Io's volcanic activity and Jupiter's powerful magnetic field, as revealed by a 28-year Hubble observation project.

Tentative Detection of Potential Biosignature Gases on Exoplanet K2-18b
A team of researchers tentatively detected dimethyl sulphide (DMS) or dimethyl disulphide (DMDS) in the atmosphere of K2-18b, an exoplanet orbiting a red dwarf star 124 light-years away, using the James Webb Space Telescope; while these gases are associated with life on Earth, non-biological sources...

New Study Suggests Intelligent Life Is More Common Than Previously Thought
A new study published in Science Advances challenges the 'hard steps' theory of intelligent life evolution, arguing that human evolution was a natural planetary process likely to have occurred on other Earth-like planets, increasing the probability of extraterrestrial intelligence.

Planetary Domino Effect: Sequential Formation Observed Around PDS 70
Using the Atacama Large Millimetesubmillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers observed a chain reaction of planet formation around the star PDS 70, 367 light-years away, where two existing planets gravitationally shepherd material to potentially form a third planet. This domino effect suggests a sequenti...
