The study which has been published in journal nature said that after running out of fuel in its core, the star began to grow in size, shrinking the gap with its neighbhouring plant, eventually swallowing it.
The new analysis, published in the journal Nature Astronomy, combines data from two Hubble instruments: the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph and the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrograph.
During Holashtak, the Moon, Sun, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn and Rahu come in a fiery state and give opposite results to the natives, but in the Brahmanda Purana, it has been informed that by taking some special measures, the native Navagraha can be calmed.
The possible exoplanet -- or planets outside of our Solar System -- candidate is located in the spiral galaxy Messier 51 (M51), also called the Whirlpool Galaxy because of its distinctive profile, NASA said in a statement.
In the latest announcement from Nasa’s solar system exploration program, two missions have been given the go-ahead – and they’re both bound for Venus.
A rare celestial treat awaits stargazers the world over as two of our solar system's largest planets, Jupiter and Saturn, will look like double planets just after sunset on Monday evening i.e, December 21, the beginning of the winter solstice.
Rogue planets are a bit uncommon as although many of the known exoplanets discovered so far do not resemble those in our solar system, they have one thing in common -- they all orbit a star.
In a unique study, astronomers have found compelling evidence that the planets begin forming while stars are still infants and they grow up together like siblings.
Astronomers have for the first time observed direct effect of volcanic activity on the atmosphere of Jupiter's moon Io.
A white dwarf is the vestige of a star that has ballooned into a red giant then collapsed back into a dense, dim core that is often about the size of Earth, so this planet is much larger than what is left of its star.
In an extraordinary discovery, an international team of astronomers has spotted a possible marker of life on Venus, a planet that has not been a significant part of the search for life because of its extreme temperatures, atmospheric composition, and other factors.
A new study has revealed that the Dwarf planet is an ocean world with a reservoir of seawater beneath its surface. Earlier it was believed that the Ceres is barren space rock.
Scientists have discovered a Saturn-like exoplanet using a radio telescope for the first time. The detected planet is known as TVLM 513b. This particular planet has a similar mass to Saturn and an orbit analogous that is pretty similar to Mercury.
Mission operators at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, said in a statement that the last communication with the Asteria (Arcsecond Space Telescope Enabling Research in Astrophysics) was in December and they will attempt to contact it till March.
The planet, Gliese 3470 b (GJ 3470 b), may be a cross between Earth and Neptune, with a large rocky core buried under a deep, crushing hydrogen-and-helium atmosphere.
The new planet named HD 21749b, orbits a bright, nearby dwarf star about 53 light years away in the constellation Reticulum.
The main object, referred to as MM 1a, is a young massive star surrounded by a rotating disc of gas and dust that was the focus of the scientists' original investigation.
Researchers hypothesise that these Neptunes get stripped of their atmospheres and ultimately become smaller planets.
The tool called Your Plan, Your Planet, is an interactive way to understand your environmental impact and learn simple, science-based ways to improve it.
A first confirmed image of a planet forming in the dust swirling around a young star has been captured.
