Floating around at the edge of the Solar System are leftovers from its formation. This is the Kuiper Belt, which is composed ...

Mysterious planetary mass objects that wander the cosmos alone could be created when young star systems clash. They aren't ...

Research published today in The Astrophysical Journal, shows the material within the newly discovered disks could be the beginnings of new planet systems which in the future orbit the binary stars.

Despite the fact we are most familiar with planets orbiting a single, central star — like the arrangement of our solar system — over 50% of stars in the cosmos exist in a binary system ...

Astronomers have discovered two exoplanets around TOI-1453, a star about 250 light years away. These two exoplanets, a super-Earth and a sub-Neptune, are common in the galaxy, yet are absent from our ...

How do rogue planetary-mass objects, celestial bodies that fall between planets and stars in size, come into existence? An international team of astronomers, including researchers from the University ...

Previous theories proposed that PMOs could be failed stars or planets ejected from their solar systems. However, these models fail to explain the large number of PMOs, their frequent binary ...
