Gliese 163 c (/ ˈ ɡ l iː z ə /) or Gl 163 c is a potentially habitable exoplanet, [3] [4] orbiting within the habitable zone of M dwarf star Gliese 163. [5]The parent star is 15.0 parsecs (approximately 49 light-years, or 465 trillion kilometers) from the Sun, in the constellation Dorado.
A disintegrating planet with a comet-like tail. [1] KMT-2023-BLG-0119Lb: 0.2634 +0.16822 −0.14396: ... List of exoplanets discovered by the Kepler space telescope;
A G-type main-sequence star (spectral type: G-V), also often, and imprecisely, called a yellow dwarf, or G star, is a main-sequence star (luminosity class V) of spectral type G. Such a star has about 0.9 to 1.1 solar masses and an effective temperature between about 5,300 and 6,000 K (5,000 and 5,700 °C ; 9,100 and 10,000 °F ).
A G2V-type yellow dwarf like the Sun belongs to Kepler-452, with an estimated age of 6 billion years (6 Ga) versus the solar system's 4.5 Ga. [ 46 ] The mass of its star is slightly higher than that of the Sun, 1.04 M ☉ , so despite the fact that it completes an orbit around it every 385 days versus 365 terrestrial days, it is warmer than the ...
The NStED collects and serves public data to support the search for and characterization of extra-solar planets (exoplanets) and their host stars. The data include published light curves, images, spectra and parameters, and time-series data from surveys that aim to discover transiting exoplanets.
Instead of appearing a whitish yellow shade like the stars, it will be a bright reddish point of light. Also, NASA notes that unlike stars that twinkle and sparkle when it’s dark out, planets ...
Motion interpolation of seven images of the HR 8799 system taken from the W. M. Keck Observatory over seven years, featuring four exoplanets. This is a list of extrasolar planets that have been directly observed, sorted by observed separations. This method works best for young planets that emit infrared light and are far from the glare of the star.
An artist's rendition of Kepler-62f, a potentially habitable exoplanet discovered using data transmitted by the Kepler space telescope. The list of exoplanets detected by the Kepler space telescope contains bodies with a wide variety of properties, with significant ranges in orbital distances, masses, radii, composition, habitability, and host star type.
