Thanks to NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope, the existence of a new type of planet has been confirmed, Fox News reports. The world has been identified as GJ 1214b and after analyzing it astronomers have ...
Scientists have discovered a new type of alien planet -- a steamy waterworld that is larger than Earth but smaller than Uranus. The standard-bearer for this new class of exoplanet is called GJ 1214b, ...
For more than a decade, astronomers have been trying to get a closer look at GJ 1214b, a planet 40 light-years away from Earth. Their biggest obstacle is a thick layer of haze that blankets the ...
Researchers observed exoplanet GJ 1214b's atmosphere by measuring the heat it emits while orbiting its host star. Astronomers directly detected the light emitted by a sub-Neptune exoplanet -- a ...
A strange planet that's stymied astronomers for years has an "unusually shiny atmosphere" and could be home to large amounts of water vapor, scientists said in a study published Wednesday in the ...
Meet GJ 1214b, the most Earth-like planet ever found outside our solar system. It's not exactly Earth's twin: It's about six times bigger, a whole lot hotter and made mostly of water. But compared to ...

Our solar system contains three types of planets: rocky, terrestrial worlds (Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars), gas giants (Jupiter and Saturn), and ice giants (Uranus and Neptune). Planets orbiting ...
A new class of planet has emerged from the buzzing masses of celestial spinners, a type unlike the rocky, gassy and icy worlds shuffling around the solar system. The poster-planet for this new order ...
