If we ever want to take pictures of an Earth-like exoplanet, we need to think bigger than the biggest telescopes on Earth.

Seven worlds: artist’s impression of TRAPPIST-1. (Courtesy: NASA/JPL-Caltech) The largest known system of Earth-like exoplanets has been found orbiting a dwarf star in the Milky Way. At least three of ...

Using multi-wavelength data of Earth, a team of Caltech scientists was able to construct a map of what Earth would look like to distant alien observers.

Scientists have created a 3D map of an ultra-hot exoplanet that could help discover habitable worlds.

As technology and instruments continue to advance, it may even be possible to map an Earth-like exoplanet in the future. This article was originally published in French and on The Conversation.

By harnessing the power of AI, the search for Earth-like exoplanets is accelerating at an unprecedented rate, bringing the dream of finding extraterrestrial life closer to reality than ever before.

Geochemistry study suggests the interiors of some exoplanets are very similar to that of Earth.

A distant flicker of light from a star can reveal more than you might expect. In fact, a brief, subtle brightening in the sky has helped scientists uncover something astonishing: planets much like ...

3D map of exoplanet atmosphere shows wacky climate "This planet’s atmosphere behaves in ways that challenge our understanding of how weather works." ...

Astronomers have discovered that super-Earth exoplanets are more common across the universe than previously thought. While it can be relatively easy to locate worlds that orbit close to their star ...

Jupiter-like planets have their merits, but the ultimate goal of exoplanet hunters naturally centers on securing images of Earth-like planets — those with about one-tenth Jupiter’s diameter ...

Despite our growing exoplanet collection, we’ve yet to find anything truly Earth-like, the sort of world we could visit and be moderately comfortable.
