Astronomers discover the last three planets the Kepler telescope observed before going dark.

Stars begin to expand when they run out of fuel and can become thousands of times larger, consuming any planets in the way. For the first time, astronomers have witnessed one such event.

Earth will meet a similar fate in 5 billion years.

A new study presents the most detailed image ever of the inner region of planet forming disks that resemble dusty infrared donuts.

Regions on exoplanets called "terminator zones" could be prime sites for liquid water and possibly harbor life, a new study shows.

In the search for life elsewhere in the Universe, scientists have traditionally looked for planets with liquid water at their surface. But, rather than flowing

Scientists from the University of Cambridge, ETH Zurich, Harvard University, and the University of Chicago have founded the Origins Federation, which will

Can artificial intelligence transform the search for alien intelligence?
