Research indicates the existence of Earth-like planets in dead solar system through latest chemical analysis techniques

Study reveals chemical composites of exoplanet atmospheres 128 light years away. Scientists say techniques will “one day provide evidence of life beyond Earth”.

Astronomers using the Herschel Space Observatory have detected massive debris discs around two nearby stars hosting low-mass planets. ̽��ֱ��discovery suggests that debris discs may survive more easily in planetary systems without high-mass planets.

̽��ֱ��first images of an upward surge of the Sun’s gases into quiescent coronal loops have been identified by an international team of scientists. ̽��ֱ��discovery is one more step towards understanding the origins of extreme space storms, which can destroy satellite communications and damage power grids on Earth.

A proposal to design a spacecraft that would seek out habitable planets beyond our own solar system could become reality after receiving support from the UK Space Agency.

Winston Churchill was a “closet science-fiction fan” who borrowed the lines for one of his most famous speeches from H. G. Wells, a Cambridge academic has discovered.
