A team of astronomers has discovered three infant planets around a newborn star. Two new papers published in Astrophysical Journal Letters Wednesday describe the finding. The astronomers in Chile used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The three infant planets were found around a young star located about 330 light-years from Earth. The star is twice the size of Earth's Sun and four million years old. https://gizmodo.com/new-technique-reveals-hidden-infant-planets-orbiting-a-1826798242 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

ALMA has uncovered convincing evidence that three young planets are in orbit around the infant star HD 163296. Using a new planet-finding technique, astronomers have identified three discrete disturbances in the young star’s gas-filled disc: the strongest evidence yet that newly formed planets are in orbit there. These are considered the first planets discovered with ALMA. The video is available in 4K UHD.

Mars, Pluto, and extrasolar planets. Hosted by Seth Shostak and Molly Bentley. Pluto, we hardly knew ye. Well, not anymore! Until recently, Pluto and Mars were respectively the least-known and best-known planet-sized bodies in our Solar System. Thanks to the New Horizons spacecraft, our picture of Pluto has changed from a featureless dot to a place where we can name the geologic features. And with rovers and orbiters surveying the red planet, we now know much more about Mars than our parents ever did. Examining our planetary backyard has provided insight into the trillion other planets in our galaxy. Dive into a mountain lake and trek though the driest desert on Earth with a scientist who’s had not one but two near-fatal incidents in these extreme environments. Find out what questions compel her to keep returning. And scientists on the New Horizons mission remember why the nail-biting Pluto flyby almost failed at the last minute. Find out what surprises Pluto offered and what the mission might uncover as it heads to its next, outer solar-system target. Also, from Earth-like planets to super Earths and water worlds: a tour of some of Kepler’s most intriguing extrasolar planets.

Thanks to NASA, you can now virtually travel to an exoplanet.

The U.S. space agency recently launched its Exoplanet Travel Bureau.

Watch Slava G. Turyshev (Physicist, JPL) and Louis Friedman (Co-Founder and Executive Director Emeritus, The Planetary Society) discuss a mission to the SGL focal region that could provide us with direct, multi-pixel, high-resolution images and spectroscopy of a potentially habitable Earth-like exoplanet. The speakers address some aspects of mission design and spacecraft requirements, as well as capabilities needed to fly this mission in the next two decades. This lecture took place at the workshop "Technology Requirements to Operate at and Utilize the Solar Gravity Lens for Exoplanet Imaging" at the Keck Institute for Space Studies on May 16, 2018.

At best, we typically only know the mass and radius of exoplanets. But really, when we find rocky planets we'd like to know whether their interiors are similar or dissimilar to that of the Earth. Conventionally, this is impossible, as there are simply too many possible models and just two measured quantities. In a new research paper from our group, the Cool Worlds Lab here at Columbia University, we think we've helped crack at least part of the problem. Our new model, called HARDCORE, is explained in this video by the lead author and rising senior undergraduate at Columbia, Gabrielle Suissa - enjoy! ::More about this Video:: ► Suissa & Kipping (2018), "A HARDCORE model for constraining an exoplanet's core size", MNRAS, 476, 2613: https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.02019 ► HARDCORE code is available at GitHub: https://github.com/gsuissa/hardCORE ► Columbia University Department of Astronomy: http://www.astro.columbia.edu ► Cool Worlds Lab website: http://coolworlds.astro.columbia.edu ► Outro music by 8-bit Universe "Harder Better Faster Stronger [8 Bit Cover Tribute to Daft Punk]": https://8bituniverse.bandcamp.com/track/harder-better-faster-stronger-8-bit-tribute-to-daft-punk ::Playlists For Channel:: Latest Cool Worlds Videos ► http://bit.ly/NewCoolWorlds Cool Worlds Research ► http://bit.ly/CoolWorldsResearch Guest Videos ► http://bit.ly/CoolWorldsGuests Q&A Videos ► http://bit.ly/CoolWorldsQA Tabby's Star ► http://bit.ly/TabbysStar Science of TV/Film ► http://bit.ly/ScienceMovies ::Follow us:: SUBSCRIBE to the channel http://bit.ly/CoolWorldsSubscribe Cool Worlds Lab http://coolworlds.astro.columbia.edu Twitter https://twitter.com/david_kipping Instagram https://www.instagram.com/cool.worlds THANKS FOR WATCHING!!

Hope you guys enjoy my new video! This one is about the various ways used to detect planets orbiting other stars, and also a little bit about the recently launched TESS Mission. Hopefully I shall get another video or two in for you guys before the end of the month, but I do have some very important tests coming up in school. We shall see... ------------------------------------------------------------ Music: Y&V - Lune [NCS Release] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n79aphwhpW0 The video clips used here are from a National Geographic documentary about exoplanets called "Alien Earths".

Helium has been detected in the atmosphere of gas giant exoplanet WASP-107b by astronomers using the Hubble Space Telescope. -- Read more: https://www.space.com/40469-helium-detected-alien-planet-atmosphere.html Credit: Space.com / animations courtesy: ESA/Hubble, M. Kornmesser / produced and edited by Steve Spaleta

The exoplanet WASP-107b is a gas giant, orbiting a highly active K-type main sequence star. The star is about 200 light-years from Earth. Using spectroscopy, scientists were able to find helium in the escaping atmosphere of the planet — the first detection of this element in the atmosphere of an exoplanet.

Candidates will be observed from ground based telescopes to verify that planets have been uncovered. Also questions such as "What are the characteristics of those planets?" and "What kind of stars have planets" are key to the TESS mission. When such satellites are launched, significant work goes into understanding what the probability of success is in finding the target objects. To predict accurately all the observational parameters of the satellite are considered and analysis is done, and in this case, to estimate the number and types of planets that might be found. Join Tony Darnell and Carol Christian during Afternoon Astronomy Coffee on April 26 at 3PM Eastern time as they discuss with Joshua Pepper (Lehigh University) and Thomas Barclay (NASA Goddard Space Flight Center), how their theoretical models are used to predict what TESS might find.

CAPE CANAVERAL, FLORIDA — NASA's new planet-hunting satellite will seek out Earth-like worlds over the next two years. Called the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), the spacecraft searches for planets which orbit a star and cause a dip in its brightness. This pattern is akin to how Earth orbits the Sun, and repeated brightness dips may indicate planet supporting life. Planets orbiting other stars are termed exoplanets. This covers planets of all sizes from Earth and Mars, to Jupiter. TESS will search for exoplanets outside the solar system. NASA says TESS will cover an area 400 times greater than observed by the Kepler satellite. Over 2 years it, it will look at 26 different sectors of space. According to NASA, TESS will observe stars up to 100 times brighter than previously covered. Subscribe to TomoNews ►►http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-TomoNews TomoNews is your best source for real news.

This week in space news, NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite launches on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket to embark on a hunt for exoplanets, and the Parker Solar Probe arrives in Florida to begin preparations for its upcoming mission to study the Sun.

SpaceX is targeting launch of NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) on Wednesday, April 18 from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida. The 30-second launch window opens at 6:51 p.m. EDT, or 22:51 UTC. TESS will be deployed into a highly elliptical orbit approximately 48 minutes after launch. Following stage separation, SpaceX will attempt to land Falcon 9’s first stage on the “Of Course I Still Love You” droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

In this week's questions show, Fraser gets excited about the NIAC awards, considers how NASA will deal with a fully operational BFR, and a special guest answer from Professor David Kipping from Columbia University's Cool Worlds lab.

I just had a random question and thought of you: Recently, astrophysics discovered that a lot of the really heavy elements (for example gold) are created in neutron star collisions (if memory serves). Could a potential solution to the fermi paradox be that there havent been enough of these collisions for earlier civilisations to have been able to discover / invent space technologies? I.e. gold can be very usefull in electronics. Maybe earlier civilisations didnt have the materials needed to reach the electronic age and are stuck in an earlier age due to a lack of resources / elements on the home planet? Steven Utter The laaava. You say it as if you're about to say Llama. Taner Ali I think it will be awesome if you make a video (or two) about the 2018 NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts awards. They are always very interesting and you manage to convey complex information very well, keep up the good work and thanks! Predrag Bubalo If there are open vents and geysers of water breaking through the surface on Europa, why the need to drill through the kilometres of ice? Couldn't the probes gain access to the water through these vents and geysers? Jeffrey Gould Hello Fraser,Since some white dwarfs and neutron stars have been found to spin at incredible speeds, I was wondering if they may come close to flinging anything off their equator, or even cancelling a significant fraction of their own tremendous gravity at the surface. Is this even possible within our laws of physics? Mighty13 Don't know how NASA will respond if an innovative project such as BFR really comes to life. Bryan Blatz Fraser, why the green screen nature background and piped in nature noises? Would an astronomical background be more appropriate? Guybrush Threepwood Hi Fraser, how big was the observable universe before the Big Bang? Lesley B HI Fraser, I like your channel a lot. I have a question. What will happen to Jupiter when it stops being active? Will it loose it's atmosphere? will there be a surface? What will it look like? Greetings Lesley. Locut0s Do you ever feel you live both at the best and worst time in human history in terms of space exploration, and cosmology? I feel we have picked a lot of the low hanging fruit and that despite there still being much more amazement to come, we are now looking at missions, probes, telescopes, and physics experiments that require more and more funding and longer and longer planning. At the speed of progress of other technologies like the advancements in AI, materials science, biology etc, I can only imagine where we will be at the end of my life. But by comparison many missions and new promising probes, telescopes etc, take 20 to 30+ years to come to fruition. This can seem disheartening at times. ferusgratia Hey Fraser! Thanks to all the work you and Youtubers like you do, I feel like I have a much better grasp of space and to some extent Cosmology. That said it's been a bit since I've had my mind blown by some new fact. I think I'm ready to delve into materials that would be hard to cover on Youtube, but I don't think I'm ready for hardcore scientific journals. Do you know of any good "middle ground" resources? Thanks! Alpha581 Love your videos as always.I have an interesting question for you.Assuming that the universe is infinite and you travel far enough will you eventually meet an exact copy of Earth and humans by random coincidence? Norman1951 Norman Fraser QUESTION: What percentage of exoplanetary systems align with earth in such away that their orbital planes pass across their star's disk as seen from earth? I can't imagine that it would be very high. Great show.

SpaceX’s planned launch of NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has been delayed.The $337 million exoplanet-hunting spacecraft must wait until at least Wednesday before it can blast off.Due to launch Monday evening, conditions looked good for takeoff, with SpaceX tweeting: “Weather is 80% favorable for today’s launch at 6:32 p.m.EDT, 22:32 UTC.” But later that day, SpaceX announced it was delaying the launch for extra testing.“Standing down today to conduct additional GNC analysis,” the company wrote in a tweet.GNC stands for “guidance, navigation and control.” TESS—a spacecraft roughly the size of a washing machine—will search nearby bright stars for signs of planets.It will monitor the light of these stars, looking out for small dips in brightness.This dimming could signal a planet is moving in front of the star.Don't miss: The NSA Wants Your Encrypted Data | Opinion NASA expects TESS will find tens of thousands of exoplanets.The craft is set to sweep the sky as it orbits the earth for two years.Each orbit will take about 13.7days.TESS will take the baton from NASA’s other planet-hunting spacecraft, Kepler, which is running out of fuel after almost a decade in space.Kepler has found more than 2,300 confirmed exoplanets over its lifetime."One of the many amazing things that Kepler told us is that planets are everywhere and there are all kinds of planets out there,” Patricia Boyd, TESS guest investigator program lead at NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center, told reporters in advance of the scheduled launch.“So TESS takes the next step.If planets are everywhere, then it is time for us to find the planets that are closest to us orbiting bright nearby stars, because these will be the touchstone system." Most popular: Anyone Who Knows Anything About Fashion Has Stopped Wearing Fur | Opinion Last-minute delays for testing are not unusual for rocket launches.“Final day launch postponement because someone did a last minute check of something and decided it needed another look is surprisingly common.Always better safe than sorry,” astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell, from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, commented on Twitter.Several of SpaceX’s past missions have been held back for technical reasons.For example, in late 2017 the company’s launch of mysterious government payload Zuma was delayed for additional “assurance work.”SpaceX finally launched Zuma in January, but questions remain as to its ultimate success.TESS will launch on one of SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rockets—the same class of rocket that has sent several Dragon capsules to the International Space Station with supplies.A Falcon 9 recently sent sperm up for analysis to the space laboratory.Assuming the Falcon 9 is good to go, the weather looks reasonably favorable for a Wednesday launch.There is a slight risk of further delay from rising clouds, according a U.S.Air Force forecast.Issued Monday afternoon, the forecast gives less than a 10 percent chance that weather problem

We’re now entering the final days for NASA’s Kepler Space Telescope. It’s running out of fuel and already crippled by the loss of its reaction wheels. In just a few months NASA will shut it down for good. That is sad, but don’t worry, NASA’s next planet hunting spacecraft, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Telescope is on the launchpad and ready to fly to space to take over where Kepler left off.

It's all the news that's fit to watch.

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is launching on board a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, and some clever work by the designers has enabled it to reach an ideal orbit with almost no work by the spacecraft. Instead much of the work is carried out by the Falcon 9 upper stage with only small adjustments made by the spacecraft's attitude control thrusters. By doing this they were able to make the spacecraft even cheaper and fit it into the small budget available.

NASA plans to leadi n a new age of exoplanet discovery with their TESS, or the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, which is scheduled to launch aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket on April 16. The space telescope, a successor to the aging and soon-to-be-decommissioned Kepler space telescope, will scan an area of the night sky nearly 400 times larger than that covered by those before it. With so much real estate out there to examine, NASA expects that TESS may discover as many as 20,000 exoplanets https://www.mnn.com/earth-matters/space/blogs/nasa-set-launch-new-groundbreaking-exoplanet-hunter http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

Please consider becoming a patron: https://patreon.com/DeepAstronomy The search for exoplanets began more than 30 years ago and once evidence for these objects began to accumulate, the number of confirmed planets has increased dramatically. As the surveys and searches continue, the plethora of types of exoplanets also has become fascinatingly diverse. Having discovered the "Hot Jupiter" type of planets, researchers now looking for smaller and colder objects. Taking a lesson from our own solar system, it does appear that things that might qualify as planets elsewhere might be moons in our own system. Take for example Saturn's moon Titan, and also Jupiter's moon Ganymede. These objects may harbor water and conditions conducive to life. What if we found such objects around other stars? We probably would call them planets if they orbited the star rather than a large gas planet. What is it that qualifies an object as an exoplanet and what types of distant objects might actually be able to support some sort of life? Join Tony Darnell and Carol Christian during Afternoon Astronomy Coffee on April 12 at 3PM Eastern time as they discuss with Juan Lora (UCLA), Tiffany Kataria (JPL), and Peter Gao (UC Berkeley) how they are creating models of such objects to understand the atmospheric characteristics and chemistry of exoplanets that have more uncommon with the moons of our solar system than the objects we call planets.

TESS, the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite, is NASA's newest exoplanet mission. Led by MIT, TESS will find thousands of new planets orbiting nearby stars. During its two year survey, TESS will watch a wide variety of stars, looking for signs of planets ranging from Earth-size to larger than Jupiter. Each of TESS's cameras has a 16.8-megapixel sensor covering a square 24 degrees wide — large enough to contain an entire constellation. TESS has four of these cameras arranged to view a long strip of the sky called an observation sector. TESS will watch each observation sector for about 27 days before rotating to the next. It will cover the southern sky in its first year, and then begin scanning the north. TESS will study 85 percent of the sky — an area 350 times greater than what NASA's Kepler mission first observed — making TESS the first exoplanet mission to survey nearly the entire sky. Because TESS's observation sectors overlap, it will have an area near the pole under constant observation. This region is easily monitored by the James Webb Space Telescope, which allows the two missions to work together to first find, and then carefully study exoplanets.

NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite - TESS - will fly in an orbit that completes two circuits around Earth every time the Moon orbits once. This special orbit will allow TESS’s cameras to monitor each patch of sky continuously for nearly a month at a time. To get into this orbit, TESS will make a series of loops culminating in a lunar gravity assist, which will give it the final push it needs. TESS will reach its orbit about 60 days after launch.

To uncover the mysteries of the universe, astronomers are becoming greedy, making more observations than they can possibly analyze manually. Large photometric surveys from space telescopes like Kepler and the future TESS are no exception and today modern astronomers use artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms to help them reveal the existence of exoplanets hidden in many years of observations of hundreds of thousands of stars. For this SETI Talk, we invited two researchers involved in the Kepler mission and AI to discuss the potential of neural networks to transform astronomy. Jeff Smith, Data scientist at the SETI Institute, has developed data processing and planet detection algorithms for Kepler since 2010 and is now involved in developing the pipeline for the future TESS mission. Chris Shallue, a senior software engineer at Google AI has used a neural network to analyze archival data from the Kepler Space Telescope to reveal the existence of two unknown exoplanets, named Kepler-90i and Kepler-80g. After presenting their recent work, we will discuss the impact of this new mode of scientific discovery, where artificial intelligence can assist humans in mapping out parts of the galaxy that have not yet been fully revealed. Chris Shallue is a Senior Research Software Engineer on the Google AI team in Mountain View, California. His research is currently focused on machine learning techniques for identifying planets in data collected by the NASA Kepler space telescope. He also works on image captioning, natural language modeling and machine learning theory. Chris was previously a member of the Google Display Ads team where he worked on ad selection and personalization for GMail and Google Maps. Prior to joining Google, Chris was teaching, studying and researching mathematics. Dr. Jeffrey Smith began his academic passion in the field of High Energy Accelerator Physics. His Ph.D. thesis was on the design of the International Linear Collider (ILC), a 22 mile-long electron-positron accelerator that will complement the discoveries being made at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. After Cornell, Jeff joined the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory at Stanford University to continue his work on the ILC and also to develop upgrade hardware for the LHC. After a successful career looking into the tiniest of inner-spaces Jeff decided to look up to the stars. Dr. Smith, now at the SETI Institute, develops data processing and planet detection algorithms for the Kepler and TESS Missions. Eking out planet signals in the Kepler data has proven to be a challenging and rewarding endeavor but looking toward the future, Dr. Smith is involved with developing new methods for use with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), a new NASA planet finding mission to find Earth’s nearest cousins in a our galactic back yard.

The search for extrasolar planets has uncovered a dizzying array of planetary systems. As part of that quest, researchers have found new planet types—lava worlds and super-Earths—as well as planets orbiting more than one star.

We were impressed when we detected the first exoplanet, but how about detecting planets in other galaxies? In this episode, we discuss recent evidence for extragalactic planets, the possibility of rogue planets being homes for civilizations and the possibility of travelling to other galaxies. ►Click here to subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCB0fFWQLZ2oj-FaoDUG_wow?sub_confirmation=1 ►Written, Produced & Narrated by: David ►Share this video: https://youtu.be/3IH_CxaplV8 Music: “So Many Stars” by Miguel Johnson “Cylinder Five” by Chris Zabriskie "Endless Story about Sun and Moon” by Kai Engel

in HD 1080p Exoplanet Atmosphere Characterization, Present and Future pH Lecture March 1, 2018 Phillips Auditorium Laura Kreidberg CfA Host: Charles Alcock Abstract: We now know that exoplanets abound in the Galaxy, with most stars hosting at least one planet. These recently discovered worlds are much more diverse than the planets in the Solar System, and raise many questions about their formation, evolution, and habitability. To address these questions, we turn to atmosphere characterization, which provides a wealth of additional information about the planets. I will discuss the state of the art in atmosphere studies, focusing on recent high-precision, space-based observations of hot Jupiters and warm Neptunes. These studies have already revealed planetary atmospheric chemistry, climate, and cloud coverage in unprecedented detail, and they are poised for a revolutionary advance thanks to the upcoming launch of the James Webb Space Telescope. I will conclude with a discussion of prospects for future observations with JWST, including the characterization of temperate, terrestrial worlds.

Finding another planet like Earth outside of our solar system is now a possibility like never before. More than at any other time in human history, we have to tools to begin finding Earth's twin. Today's hangout features a discussion with Dr. Jessie Christiansen, Staff Scientist at the NASA Exoplanet Archive. Jessie is an expert in exoplanetary systems and has focused her research on: Measurement and analysis of exoplanet atmosphere compositions; detection and characterisation of interesting exoplanet systems; derivation of planet occurrence rates from the NASA Kepler mission and the generation and analysis of planet and planet candidate catalogues. Jessie loves to talk to the public about astronomy and the search for life beyond our solar system and has been been featured in many media programs including NASA's Unexplained Files on the Discovery Science channel.
