Astronomers have discovered a new super-Earth class exoplanet, TOI-1080 b, orbiting a red dwarf star 83 light-years from Earth. The planet is larger and more massive than Earth, but it lies outside the habitable zone of its star.
Astronomers have confirmed the existence of two new exoplanets orbiting the red dwarf GJ 887, one of which lies within the habitable zone and may have conditions suitable for liquid water. Further research will help scientists learn more about the potential for life in this system.
Astronomers have confirmed the existence of the super-Earth GJ 251 c, located in the habitable zone of a red dwarf just 18 light-years from Earth. This planet is considered a promising candidate for the search for life and future studies of its atmosphere.
