Its proximity to the star means it is likely to be tidally locked, with one side constantly facing towards its star and the other side shrouded in unending darkness.
The planet was discovered in 2011, after astronomers spotted subtle, periodic dimming of light from its host star, caused by the planet passing in front. The latest work goes further by measuring starlight that is being filtered through the planet's atmosphere.

Switzerland to test hybrid wind-solar system in the Alps
August 26 (Renewables Now) - Switzerland is planning to install a small wind turbine combined with solar panels to test the effectiveness of such a hybrid system for the generation of clean power in the Alps.
The Swiss Federal Office for Defence Procurement, Armasuisse, has already submitted a planning application for the facility which will be located in the La Stadera area above the Medel municipality in the canton of Grisons.
These Are the 13 Coolest Exoplanets in the Milky Way
Surprisingly, water could make up 30 percent of TOI-1452b’s mass, a far greater proportion than Earth’s 1-percent water mass (despite water covering 70 percent of our planet’s surface).
Perhaps even more surprising then, is that the planet seems to be moving farther away from its star with each orbit. Maybe it’s too close for comfort.

The current solar cycle, number 25, started in 2019, which means that the Sun has been slowly ramping up its sunspot and flare activity for the past few years.

Alien-hunting array catches Voyager 1 signal from interstellar space | Space
The Allen Telescope Array in California detected signal from the Voyager 1 probe, the NASA satellite launched 45 year ago that is currently speeding toward the outer edges of the solar system, way beyond the orbit of Pluto.
"The detection of Voyager 1, the farthest human-made object, with the refurbished Allen Telescope Array is an excellent display of the telescope's capabilities and strengths, and a representation of the outstanding hard work put by the ATA team since the start of the refurbishment program in ...
