This means that one part of this world always shines with light and the other part always remains dark. Scientists have found such a planet for the first time in any other solar system.
There is a world outside our solar system also. Which is full of mystery and thrill. There are new revelations about this and they are very shocking. Recently astronomers have made one such revelation. According to which, there is a world outside this solar system, a part of which remains imprisoned in the stars. This means that one part of this world always shines with light and the other part always remains dark. For the first time, scientists have found such a planet in any other solar system.
Published According to this research, the name of the channel is LHS 3844b or Kua’kua. This planet is said to be too close to its star to support life. Astronauts are considering this discovery as very important. On the basis of this, it is believed that some planets captured in their stars may also be in our galaxy.
What is tidal locking?
If we want to understand the meaning of tidal locking then it can be estimated by looking at the moon. The Moon also always appears on the same side towards the Earth. The reason for this is the gravitational force of the Earth which reduces the speed of rotation of the Moon. Exoplanets that are very close to their stars are more likely to have tidal locking. Because the gravitational force of the stars affects their speed. Scientists have come to the conclusion of the new planet being a tidal planet after studying its temperature.
The researcher has prepared a model of an exoplanet without atmosphere. It was compared with Kua’kua’s observations. These observations were taken from the Spitzer Space Telescope. If a planet is not in tidal lock with its star, its temperature continuously increases. After which they came to the conclusion that Kua’kua is much colder than this study. After this initial study, scientists now need a more powerful telescope for further research.
LHS 3844 b, also known as Kua’kua, is an exoplanet that orbits the red dwarf star LHS 3844. It was discovered in 2018 using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS
Here are some details about LHS 3844 b:
- Size: 1.3 times the diameter of Earth
- Mass: 2.25 times the mass of Earth
- Orbital period: 11 hours
- Orbital radius: 0.00622 AU
- Orbital eccentricity: 0.0
- Surface: May be made of dark, basaltic rock
- Temperature: Dayside temperatures greater than 1,000°F (525°C)
- Atmosphere: Likely doesn’t have a substantial atmosphere
LHS 3844 b is 0.00622 AU from its star. It takes 0.5 days for LHS 3844 b to complete one orbit of its star
LHS 3844 b orbits a small, cool red dwarf star that is about 49 light-years from Earth. The star has about 15% the mass and 19% the radius of the Sun. It is a relatively inactive red dwarf with a slow rotation period of about 128 days
What we actually know about aliens 👾 according to science
came from space, hurtling at tremendous speed: a mystery object, reddish, rocky, shaped like a cigar. Its velocity was so extreme it had to have come from somewhere far away, in the interstellar realm. The astronomers in Hawaii who spotted it in 2017 named it ‘Oumuamua, Hawaiian for “a messenger from afar arriving first.”
But what was it, exactly? A comet? An asteroid?
Or maybe … an alien spacecraft?
That conjecture incited headlines, as well as eyerolls from most scientists. But here in West Virginia, the people involved in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence — commonly called SETI — decided to aim a giant radio telescope at it, just to be sure.
Aliens are having a moment. Fascination with the concept of extraterrestrial visitors isn’t new, but it has enjoyed a 21st-century efflorescence. Military pilots have seen things that look otherworldly. The Pentagon has established an office to look into the sightings. Congress has held hearings. Even NASA got into the game, training the cool logic of science onto a scorching-hot cultural topic
For SETI researchers, the hypothetical existence of aliens is foundational. Nestled in the remote mountain town of Green Bank, the National Radio Astronomy Observatory has a role in one of the most ambitious SETI projects, called Breakthrough Listen. The project buys time on the towering Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope, which has a steerable dish 300 feet in diameter. If there are aliens transmitting radio signals anywhere near us in the galaxy, that big dish is all ear
Only a small fraction of our galaxy has been studied. Absence of evidence, as everyone knows, is not evidence of absence. Aliens may not consider radio waves to be a useful or dignified way to communicate. They could be pathologically shy. Or, at least with the kind of technology we have today, they could be just a little bit out of range
The math that says Earth is no miracle
For SETI experts, two arguments grounded in science bolster the conjecture that aliens are surely out there somewhere: Big Numbers and the Copernican principle.
The Big Numbers argument notes that our galaxy, the Milky Way, has something like 400 billion stars, and it’s just one of untold billions of galaxies in a universe that might be infinite. Moreover, in the past 30 years, astronomers have discovered that planets of all shapes and sizes are common in the universe.
“I think there’s a massive, massive difference between being able to find life elsewhere, and being able to find evidence of intelligent life and being able to contact them,” Mitchell said
What is LHS in astronomy?
‘LHS’ refers to the Luyten Half-Second Catalogue of stars with proper motions exceeding half a second of arc annually. The star is over 5 billion years old and has only about 18% the mass of the Sun and 21% of its radius
What is the mass of LHS 3844 B?
LHS 3844 b is a super Earth exoplanet that orbits an M-type star. Its mass is 2.25 Earths, it takes 0.5 days to complete one orbit of its star, and is 0.00622 AU from its star
Which exoplanet is most like earth
According to NASA, Kepler-452b is the most Earth-like exoplanet ever found. It’s about 1.6 times the size of Earth and orbits a sunlike star. Kepler-452b is thought to be rocky and within the habitable zone of a G-type star similar to ours. It also has an atmosphere, water, and land
Kepler-452b is located about 1,800 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Cygnus. It was discovered by NASA’s Kepler spacecraft in 2015. Because of its similar size and orbit to Earth, and the amount of energy it receives from its star, Kepler-452b has earned the nickname “Earth 2.0” or “Earth’s cousin”.
Other exoplanets that may be habitable include:
- TRAPPIST-1e: One of seven known Earth-size planets orbiting TRAPPIST-1, 40 light-years away. Three of those planets, including TRAPPIST-1 e, are in the habitable zone.
- Kepler-442-b: Considered to be one of the most Earth-like planets to have been found.
- Kepler-62e: The furthest out of all the planets around the star Kepler-62. It’s about 60 larger than Earth and orbits once every 122 Earth days.
Which exoplanet is likely to have life
According to astronomers, TRAPPIST-1eis the most likely exoplanet to be hospitable to life. It has a similar density to Earth and scientists think it’s the most likely to have water on its surface
The planetary system around the star TOI-700 is also considered a likely candidate for extraterrestrial life. TOI-700 e is a potentially habitable planet that’s similar in size to Earth and could potentially support life. However, it’s over 100 light years away from Earth, making it too far for humans to visit.
Proxima Centauri B is the closest potentially habitable planet to Earth, located 4.22 light years away. It’s only 17% more massive than Earth and orbits a star that’s dimmer and less massive than the sun. It’s located in the middle of the star’s habitable zone, which means there’s a chance that liquid water and life could exist on the planet. However, scientists haven’t yet determined if the planet has an atmosphere
