NASA confirms the existence of TOI‑1846 b, a nearby hot super-Earth that could contain water, initially observed by NASA's TESS telescope.

Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), an international team of astronomers has discovered a new ...

NASA is always on the hunt for planets like our own, and recently found a new super-Earth by the name of TOI-715b. The planet is larger than our own, but it’s position and makeup mean that it ...

So magnetospheres in “super-Earths” could be more prevalent than previously thought, but also last longer than on Earth-sized rocky planets.

Super-Earths, in short, are planets with masses up to 10 times that of our planet, but still less than the masses of gas giant planets. The discovery came after a small extrasolar planet, ...

Super-Earth TOI-1452 b, depicted in this artist’s rendition, orbits a red dwarf star some 100 light-years away. It is 70 percent larger than Earth and five times our planet’s mass, with a ...

Super-Earths may be some of the most common planets in our galaxy. Since 2009, the Kepler Space Telescope has discovered about 4,000 exoplanets. 30% of them are super-earths.

Any alien civilizations born on "super-Earth" alien planets may be ground-bound by their home worlds' powerful gravity, a new study suggests.

If super-Earths lack such dynamic cores, investigators suggested they might lack magnetic fields as well. [The Strangest Alien Planets (Photos)] ...

So-called "super-Earth" alien worlds may bear little resemblance to our own home planet and thus could be less likely to support life than previously believed, a new study suggests.Super-Earths ...

Super-Earths can exist in wider orbits around their parent stars than was previously believed, suggesting these Earth-like exoplanets could be more common than we thought.
