We all know that Earth is surrounded by a magnetic field. Earth’s magnetic field extends from its iron core and acts like an invisible shield that protects us from harmful radiation from the sun. Now...
Just few months into its missions, NASA’s newest planet-hunting TESS spacecraft has found two exciting exoplanet candidates. The first potential exoplanet is about twice the size of Earth and orbits...

The presence of large amounts of dust around distant stars is a major obstacle for finding potentially habitable exoplanets. However, it can also be considered as an indication of an exoplanet’s...
