These so-called exoplanets include rocky worlds roughly the size of Earth, gas giants larger than Jupiter and "mini-Neptunes."
Astronomers discovered the first exoplanets by using the "wobble" method of tracking the subtle teetering of a star caused by the gravitational pulls of orbiting planets.
Sounds in space: What noises do planets make? | Space
In 2022, people on Earth were able to hear the planetary sounds of Mars thanks to two microphones installed on board NASA's Perseverance rover. The audio clips of these sounds in space captured range from a gust of Martian wind to the snapping sound of the rover’s laser hitting a rock.
According to NASA , these sounds are subtly different from what you would hear on Earth , being quieter and more muffled due to the lower density and different composition of the Martian atmosphere .
Dust Might Reveal the Presence of Habitable Planets - UNIVERSE TODAY
NASA’s next great space telescope should launch no later than 2027. The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is a powerful wide-field infrared telescope that will create panoramic fields of view 100 times greater than Hubble’s.
A new study shows how the Roman Space Telescope can measure the dust in distant solar systems to help find habitable planets.
Cosmic Milestone: NASA Confirms 5,000 Exoplanets – Exoplanet Exploration: Planets Beyond our Solar ...
The planetary odometer turned on March 21, with the latest batch of 65 exoplanets – planets outside our immediate solar family – added to the NASA Exoplanet Archive .
The 5,000-plus planets found so far include small, rocky worlds like Earth, gas giants many times larger than Jupiter, and “hot Jupiters” in scorchingly close orbits around their stars.

As mentioned last week , we have a nice spectacle of planets happening before dawn. Mars and Venus had a nice close encounter, and now Saturn is joining in.
Astronomers use new method to locate 'Star Wars'-like planets with two suns

A team of astronomers, including a researcher from Ohio State, located a planet orbiting two stars that resembles the planet Tatooine from the movie series "Star Wars."
Cosmic Collisions Yield Clues about Exoplanet Formation - Scientific American
Some of the best movies are origin stories. When we know where a superhero is coming from, then we can understand why they do what they do. The same goes for planets: knowing how they formed is key in understanding their internal structure, geology and climates.
But what about the thousands of planets we’ve found around other stars; did they form like Earth? Answering this question may seem hopeless because we’ll never have rocks from those planets to analyze.
Nasa spots chaotic aftermath of COLLISION between two planets in rare discovery
Scientists estimate that the two objects involved in the space crash were at least the size of dwarf planets.
Space collisions are common in planet formation - it's how the Moon was created and developed its orbital relationship with Earth.
This is the first observation of its kind to come from the Spitzer Space Telescope. The space agency released a depiction of the collision over the weekend.
