Scientists using data from the European Space Agency’s Gaia mission have made a groundbreaking discovery: a massive exoplanet ...

The European satellite, launched in 2013, has exhausted its gas reserves and is preparing to return to a stable orbit before being 'passivated.' But while the data collection that revolutionized ...

The Gaia mission, launched by the European Space Agency, has completed a decade of groundbreaking astronomical observations, collecting over three trillion data points on two billion stars and ...

Data from the Gaia spacecraft shows that even unassuming stars can host monumental companions like massive planets.

Hypervelocity stars (HVSs) were first theorized to exist in the late 1980s. In 2005, the first discoveries were confirmed.

They then selected stars whose temperature and luminosity are comparable to those of the Sun, with precise locations determined thanks to the Gaia satellite. The sample thus constituted includes ...

Future data from the Gaia satellite could reveal more details about this system, including the possible presence of a brown dwarf at its outskirts. This discovery could well force a revision of our ...

Observations of WASP-132 continue, with the ESA's Gaia satellite measuring minute variations in the positions of stars since 2014, with a view to revealing their planetary companions and outer ...

Observations of WASP-132 are not over yet, however, as ESA's Gaia satellite has been measuring the minute variations in the positions of stars since 2014, with an aim to reveal their planetary ...
