A groundbreaking discovery in the field of exoplanetary research has shed light on the mysterious world of planet formation. GJ 3470 b, a gas dwarf located about 96 light years…
Exoplanetary Science is the branch of astrophysics that focuses on the study of exoplanets, which are planets located outside of our solar system. This field encompasses the discovery, characterization, and analysis of these distant worlds, including their atmospheres, composition, orbits, and potential for hosting life. Exoplanetary scientists utilize various methods, such as the transit method, radial velocity method, and direct imaging, to find and study exoplanets. The research in this field also examines the formation and evolution of planetary systems, the diversity of planetary types, and the conditions that may lead to habitability. Exoplanetary science is a rapidly evolving discipline that aims to enhance our understanding of the universe and the potential for life beyond Earth.
