Astronomers Find Earth-Like Exoplanet Orbiting Dead Star
The team that studied this event identified an Earth-like exoplanet and an object 17 times larger than Jupiter (most likely a brown dwarf) in the nearer system. They were unable to characterize the star because of glare from the magnified background star.
Earth-Like Exoplanet Orbiting White Dwarf Offers New Hope For Our Planet's Survival | Here's How
Astronomers have found an Earth-like exoplanet orbiting a distant white dwarf, shedding light on the possible future of our own planet. Although the exoplanet may no longer be habitable, its survival through its star’s red giant phase offers intriguing clues about Earth’s fate when the Sun eventually dies.
This exoplanet circling a dead star may mirror Earth's fate — if our planet survives a dying sun, that is
"We do not currently have a consensus whether Earth could avoid being engulfed by the red giant sun in 6 billion years."
Earth-like Planet Found Orbitting Dead Star Hints at Earth’s Survival Beyond the Sun
Astronomers have discovered an Earth-like planet orbiting a white dwarf star about 4,000 light-years away. This discovery offers a potential preview of Earth’s distant future as the Sun undergoes its own transformation into a white dwarf billions of years from now.
