Scientists have discovered a giant planet called TOI-6894b, orbiting a star that should be far too small to have formed it. The discovery could further challenge theories of planet formation.
It had not been thought possible that such tiny, weak stars could provide the conditions needed to form and host huge planets.
Most of the stars across the Milky Way are small red dwarfs like TOI-6894, which has only 20% the mass of our Sun ...
A group of astronomers from across the globe, including a team from the University of Washington and led by Queen's ...
A small red dwarf star, TOI-6894, is defying astronomers' expectations by having a gas giant planet in its orbit.
With its low density and unusually cool, methane-rich atmosphere, this planet offers a rare window into giant planet ...
Star TOI-6894 is just like many in our galaxy, a small red dwarf, and only ~20% of the mass of our sun. Like many small stars ...
Under such scenarios, Mercury frequently crashes into the Sun or Venus, setting off cascading changes that alter the orbits ...
