A Super-Earth or super-terran or super-tellurian is a type ... The planet has a minimum mass 3.1 times that of Earth and a nearly circular orbit at 0.146 AU with a ...
The orbit of Wolf 1061d is one of the longest observed for a Super-Earth in orbit around a red dwarf, as well as very eccentric. The average distance between the planet and the star (the semi-major axis) is 0.470 AU, or 47% the distance between the Earth and the Sun.
Gliese 667 Cc is a super-Earth, an exoplanet with a mass and radius greater than that of Earth, but smaller than that of the giant planets Uranus and Neptune. It is heavier than Earth with a minimum mass of about 3.7 Earth masses. [5] The equilibrium temperature of Gliese 667 Cc is estimated to be 277.4 K (4.3 °C; 39.6 °F). [6]
The planet, named TOI-715 b, is around 1 1/2 times the width of our Earth and is orbiting in a habitable zone around its parent star. Researchers discover super-Earth with a 19-day year Skip to ...
Astronomers used NASA’s planet-hunting TESS satellite to find a “super-Earth” as well as a possible Earth-size planet, both orbiting a star 137 light-years away.
[3] 55 Cancri e was discovered on 30 August 2004, thus making it the first super-Earth discovered around a main sequence star, predating Gliese 876 d by a year. It is the innermost planet in its planetary system, taking less than 18 hours to complete an orbit.
Super Low Altitude Test Satellite (SLATS) or Tsubame was a JAXA satellite intended to demonstrate operations in very low Earth orbit (VLEO, below 200 km), using ion engines to counteract aerodynamic drag from the Earth's atmosphere which is substantial at such lower orbital altitudes. It was launched on 23 December 2017, and decommissioned on 1 ...
First super-earths. [1] First planet discovered via radial velocity: 51 Pegasi b: 51 Pegasi: 1995 First convincing exoplanet discovered around a Sun-like star. [2] While the minimum mass of HD 114762 b was high enough (11 Jupiter-masses) that it could be a brown dwarf, 51 Peg b's minimum mass meant that it almost certainly was near the mass of ...
