NASA Telescope Finds Twin Planets with the Right Stuff for LifeWASHINGTON >> NASA's planet-hunting telescope has discovered two planets that seem like ideal...Borenstein, Seth
NASAhas stepped closer to allowing remote onboard computers to direct the search for life on other planets. Scientists from the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center have announced first results from new intelligent systems, to be installed in space probes, capable of identifying geochemi...
"We are not just studying water and habitability in our solar system, but also looking for it in planets around other stars," he said. NASA associate administrator John Grunsfeld, said part of what excites him most about the search for life beyond our planet is to see what that life looks...
[04:16.44]further study of this field [04:18.64]can help scientists better understand other planets [04:22.96]and possibly find ones with conditions [04:26.72]that may support life. [04:29.00]Leader Collinson said that...
The number of confirmed exoplanets — planets orbiting stars other than the sun— has risen to 5,539, according to NASA, with over 10,000 more candidates under review. But exoplanet hunters believe the universe is likely teeming with many trillions of planets. These...
The chemical ingredients of life include carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. The new findings indicate Enceladus has nearly all of these ingredients, thought that does not guarantee there are microbes or other life on the tiny, icy moon. ...
Astronomers have for the first time discovered that rocky alien worlds could possess large amounts of water from the moment they form, a new study finds. Life is found virtually wherever there is water onEarth. As such, the search for potentially habitableexoplanetshas mainly focused on hunting...
Kepler-37b was found by the Kepler spacecraft as part of its ongoing mission to find Earth-like planets orbiting other stars in what is called the “habitable zone” – the band of space around a star where the temperature is right to sustain liquid water and therefore possibly life. ...
