    Where in #space can #planets with #atmospheres be found? C. Cherubim et al. (2026) used #nearinfraredspectroscopy to characterize a #rocky #exoplanet orbiting its host star within the #habitablezone. Planet #LHS1140b exhibits #helium #absorption in its atmosphere, a feature the authors attribute to a helium-dominated #upperatmosphericlayer.

  8. Potentiële atmosfeer gedetecteerd op exoplaneet LHS 1140b in de bewoonbare zone
    Met behulp van spectrale gegevens van de Magellan Clay-telescoop in het Las Campanas Observatory hebben astronomen helium gedetecteerd dat ontsnapt

  9. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪐🔭 For the first time, astronomers have detected an #atmosphere on a rocky #planet in the habitable zone of another #star.

    The super-Earth LHS 1140 b, located 50 light years away, shows signs of a #helium dominated atmosphere escaping into #space. Researchers used the WINERED #spectrograph at Las Campanas Observatory to make the ground-based #discovery.

  22. Astronomers have detected an #atmosphere around a rocky #planet orbiting in the #habitable zone of a nearby #star.

    Such planets around red dwarf stars have long been considered the best places in the galaxy to look for signs of alien #life. But so far, the #planets looked like bare rocks.

    It wasn’t clear if planets like this could even have atmospheres. Now we know that they can.

    The planet, LHS 1140b, is about 5.6 times as massive as Earth and 1.73 times Earth’s size. Those dimensions are consistent with an Earthlike composition shrouded in a gaseous atmosphere, or perhaps a global ocean of water.

    It also orbits far enough from its star that its surface temperature could support liquid water.

    Astronomers observed the molecular fingerprint of excess #helium gas absorbing light from the star. That excess is a sign of helium streaming away from the planet’s atmosphere, implying that it indeed has an atmosphere.

  30. Trying out the Helium web browser, and it's looking good.

    Hat tip: @ianbetteridge:

    "it’s about as stripped back as you can imagine. There’s no password manager, because you should be bringing a secure one of your own. There’s no mail client, AI integration, crazy sidebars… and of course, no Google. But what there is is a light, clean browser which comes out of the box with support for uBlock Origin..."
