Epsilon Eridani is a target for planet finding programs because it has properties that allow an Earth-like planet to form. Although this system was not chosen as a primary candidate for the now-canceled Terrestrial Planet Finder , it was a target star for NASA's proposed Space Interferometry Mission to search for Earth-sized planets.

Epsilon Eridani b, also known as AEgir , [4] is an exoplanet approximately 10.5 light-years away orbiting the star Epsilon Eridani, in the constellation of Eridanus (the River). The planet was discovered in 2000, and as of 2024 remains the only confirmed planet in its planetary system .
J1407b is a substellar object, either a free-floating planet or brown dwarf, with a massive circumplanetary disk or ring system. It was first detected by automated telescopes in 2007 when its disk eclipsed the star V1400 Centauri, causing a series of dimming events for 56 days. The eclipse by J1407b was not discovered until 2010, by Mark Pecaut ...
The Space Defense Front makes a bold attempt at interrupting an ongoing INTO summit by taking control of the Von Braun, and jamming all communications in orbit. They take Dolph hostage and force him to shut down the engine, and the Von Braun is redirected onto a collision course with the largest lunar city, which is used as leverage to force ...
Epsilon Indi Ab is a gas giant exoplanet orbiting the star Epsilon Indi A, about 11.9 light-years away in the constellation of Indus. The planet was confirmed to exist in 2018. [ 1 ] It orbits at around 30 AU (almost as far as Neptune from the Sun) with a period of around 180 years and a relatively high eccentricity of 0.4, and has a mass ...
The newly-found ETNO joins Sedna, a dwarf planet believed to be about 250 AU from the sun, as objects residing outside the Kuiper Belt, where Pluto resides, according to Space.
Our lunar neighbour has been crowding out the view – but it is finally giving way to rare visitor
