Finding An Ocean On An Exoplanet Would Be Huge and the Habitable Worlds Observatory Could Do It The search for habitable exoplanets boils down to the search for water. Exoplanet scientists lack the technological capability to detect surface water on exoplanets from great distances, so instead they...

8/9 Several programs will study planets around red dwarf stars, which make up most of our galaxy's stellar population.

Scientists want to understand which of these worlds retain atmospheres despite their stars' violent outbursts.

NASA wants a 'Super-Hubble' space telescope to search for life on alien worlds "The question 'Are we alone?' is one of the most significant questions, not just in the history of science, but in the history of humanity."

NASA prévoit un télescope spatial "Super-Hubble" pour trouver des signes de vie extraterrestre. Le Habitable Worlds Observatory pourrait révolutionner la recherche. #NASA #HabitableWorlds #Exoplanètes
