Betelgeuse dimmed unexpectedly, sparking theories it was about to go supernova. Though it recovered, scientists confirmed ...

Red supergiant stars represent a pivotal phase in the late-stage evolution of massive stars. Betelgeuse, one of the nearest and most studied red supergiants, offers a unique opportunity to explore ...

Giant planets are not rare per se — after all, we have four in our own solar system. Such large worlds are, however, rarely found around the smallest stars, red dwarfs. Red dwarfs simply shouldn't ...

Astronomers have spotted a cosmic mismatch that has left them perplexed - a really big planet orbiting a really small star. The discovery defies current understanding of how planets form.

Star TOI-6894 is just like many in our galaxy, a small red dwarf, and only ~20% of the mass of our sun. Like many small stars, it is not expected to provide suitable conditions for the formation ...

Well, tell that to the red dwarf star TOI-6894, which is located 238 light-years away. It has just 20% of the mass of the sun, but has been found to host a giant planet, TOI-6894b, that's a little ...

A cataclysmic variable star isn’t technically a single object. Instead, it’s a compact binary system composed of a white ...

This is clearly a giant planet.” TOI-6894 is now the smallest star known to host a transiting giant planet, with a radius 40% smaller than that of any previous such host.

A giant conundrum has been found orbiting a teeny tiny red dwarf star just a fifth of the size of the Sun. Such small stars were thought to be incapable of producing giant planets.
