Discovery Alert: An Earth-sized World and Its Ultra-cool Star
Our galaxy is a jewel box of red stars. More than 70 of the stars in the Milky Way are M dwarfs, also known as red dwarfs. These stars are cool and dim compared with our Sun, but they often blast orbiting exoplanets with high-energy radiation, especially early in their lives. And those lives last . https://science.nasa.gov/u...#nasa #space #news #nasa_exoplanet_science #nasa_exoplanets #nasa_red_dwarfs #nasa_skywatching #nasa_skywatching_tips #nasa_earth 's_moon #nasa_astrophysics #nasa_missions #nasa_stars #nasa_the_universe #nasa_night_sky_network #nasa_johnson_space_center #nasa_commercial_space #nasa_diversity_at_nasa #nasa_people_of_johnson #nasa_women_at_nasa #nasa_blogs #nasa_humans_in_space #nasa_andre_douglas #nasa_artemis #nasa_artemis_3 #nasa_kathleen_rubins #nasa_spacesuits
