At just over four light years distant, Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Sun in the entire Universe. We know it has one planet, called Proxima b, and there's decent evidence of a second, ...
Quick. What's the closest star after the sun? If you said Alpha Centauri you're one-third correct. Alpha is actually a triple system comprised of Rigil Kentaurus (Alpha Centauri A), Toliman (Alpha B) ...
It’s time to start thinking about a stellar expedition to our solar system’s nearest neighbor. The discovery of a planet potentially in the habitable zone of the red dwarf star was reason enough to ...
The sun’s nearest neighbor may actually host three planets, a new study reports. Astronomers have found evidence of a third planet circling Proxima Centauri, a red dwarf star that lies a mere 4.2 ...
Astronomers believe they have discovered a new world orbiting Proxima Centauri. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our Solar System. It's located roughly 4 light-years away. As such, it has long ...
A team of astronomers using the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT) in Chile have found evidence of another planet orbiting Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our Solar ...
A little over four light-years away is Alpha Centauri, the closest star system to the Sun. And in August 2016, researchers announced they’d found a long-searched-for planet around Proxima Centauri, ...
A third planet has been detected orbiting the closest star to our solar system, Proxima Centauri. With a mass one-quarter that of Earth, the planet – known as Proxima d – is one of the lightest ...
