The National Science Foundation has backed away from three of its headlining radio telescopes in the last decade. What comes next?

TrES-4 the Hottest Planet in the Universe
The planet you stand upon is a carbon planet, it's rocky enough to have gravity. Exoplanets are out of our world, are here are some forms of exoplanets.

Among the billions of galaxies across space, humans have only physically traveled an imperceptibly small fraction.

Two decades into the study of planets that orbit other stars, scientists recall that the discovery of the first such planet seemed almost unbelievable at the time.
MIT researchers have used physics principles to improve the performance of a machine-learning system, trained on data from a NASA crowdsourcing project, that searches astronomical data for evidence of debris disks around stars, which can indicate the presence of an exoplanet.
Get the facts on CoRoT-2b.
Scientists are studying new data from the Hubble telescope showing that planets with the density of cotton candy exist and they're called Super-Puffs.
Landscape of a planet orbiting a red dwarf star. This planet is tidaly locked, thus red dwarf always stays at the same spot in the sky. In this case, we see a sandy beach at the line between day and night. This part of the planet stays in permanent evening/morning with this big sun never setting, or rising. You can also see a silhouetes of planet's two moons and a distant, brighter star which is a companion to red dwarf.
The new work on Tau Ceti, which analyzes radial velocity data showing four planets there, looks to be a step forward in this workhouse method for planetary detection. With radial velocity, we’re analyzing tiny variations in the movement of a star as it is affected by the planets around it. These are tiny signals, and
A planet nearly double the size of Jupiter and 900 light years away has a glowing stratosphere and an atmosphere hot enough that iron there exists as a vapour
