Astronomers have discovered one of the lightest planets ever found and it's orbiting the star right next door to our own, just over four light-years away from Earth. Confirmation of Proxima d is ...

Astronomers may have detected a new exoplanet around Proxima Centauri, the star closest to our solar system. This tiny new world is one of the lightest ever discovered, which is even more impressive ...

A third planet has been detected orbiting the closest star to our solar system, Proxima Centauri. With a mass one-quarter that of Earth, the planet – known as Proxima d – is one of the lightest ...

A team of astronomers have discovered evidence for yet another exoplanet orbiting Proxima Centauri, our closest neighboring star just over four light-years away. The planet, dubbed Proxima d, is the ...

At just over four light years distant, Proxima Centauri is the closest star to the Sun in the entire Universe. We know it has one planet, called Proxima b, and there's decent evidence of a second, ...

The sun’s nearest neighbor may actually host three planets, a new study reports. Astronomers have found evidence of a third planet circling Proxima Centauri, a red dwarf star that lies a mere 4.2 ...

Astronomers believe they have discovered a new world orbiting Proxima Centauri. Proxima Centauri is the closest star to our Solar System. It's located roughly 4 light-years away. As such, it has long ...

A little over four light-years away is Alpha Centauri, the closest star system to the Sun. And in August 2016, researchers announced they’d found a long-searched-for planet around Proxima Centauri, ...
