Scientists confirmed the existence of the super-Earth exoplanet HD 20794 d, a planet that has a "peculiar" orbit in its solar system.

This is the background to the discovery of super-Earth HD 20794 d by an international team including the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and the NCCR PlanetS.

NASA's exoplanet-hunting TESS probe has discovered an Earth-size alien world called HD 63433 d that's surprisingly young and has a hemisphere of hot lava.

HD 63433d is a rocky world almost exactly the same size as our Earth, orbiting a star so close that instead of watery oceans, it is enveloped by seas of lava.

This is the background to the discovery of super-Earth HD 20794 d by an international team. The new planet lies in an eccentric orbit, so that it oscillates in and out of its star's habitable zone.

Located less than 20 light years away, HD 20794d could potentially be one of the most Earth-like planets found so far, despite its extreme climatic variability.

The confirmed discovery of exoplanets revolutionized our understanding of the universe. Among the thousands of confirmed exoplanets, HD 20794 d in particular, recently attracted attention for a unique ...
