Astronomers may have just found the first ever evidence of a planet orbiting three stars at the same time.
In a distant star system - just 1,300 light years from Earth - American astronomers may have identified the first known planet to orbit three stars, a finding that has implications for strengthening our understanding of how planets were formed.
Exoplanet researchers just found something that might be the first of its kind ever: a planet orbiting three stars.
UNLV researchers and colleagues may have identified the first known planet to orbit three stars.
In a distant star system — a mere 1,300 light years away from Earth — UNLV researchers and colleagues may have identified the first known planet to orbit three stars.
An international team of astronomers has released a new study explaining the unusual structure of the three-star system GW Orionis in the Orion galaxy.
The murder hornets that have been making headlines and both terrifying and fascinating the public can be as deadly as their nickname implies, but their true threat is to honeybee populations, rather than people.
GW Orionis, or GW Ori, is a triple star system located at the head of Orion the Hunter. A massive protoplanetary disk surrounds the triple star system.
As of yet, all that can be seen is a strange gap in the dust disk. But there are many indications that a planet has been discovered for the first time that orbits three stars at once.
Matthew Lachniet is a paleoclimatologist who studies cave formations to get a record of past climate history.
GW Ori is a star system 1,300 light-years from Earth in the constellation of Orion. But fascinatingly, it is a system with not one star, but three.
