Astronomers have finally confirmed the existence of two exoplanets — Proxima b and c — orbiting Proxima Centauri, the Sun’s closest stellar neighbor and one of the best-studied low-mass stars.
The star closest to the sun appears to host another world much colder than Earth
10 times brighter than any flares from our Sun.
Scientists are making preparations to send a transmission to Proxima b – the closest Earth-like exoplanet to our Solar System.
A rocky planet discovered in the “habitable” zone of the star nearest our Sun may be covered with oceans, researchers at France’s CNRS research institute said Thursday.
