"A rocky planet that is hot, molten and possibly harboring a large outgassed atmosphere ticks all the boxes," Dan Bower, lead author on the new study and an astrophysicist at the University of ...

The planet is 13 times closer to its star than Mercury is to the sun. The close proximity causes temperatures as low as 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit and upwards of 1,700 degrees Fahrenheit, according ...

The molten core hypothesis recommends that Mars’ magnetic field was not generated by a simple dynamo effect, as on Earth, but rather by a unique process influenced by the planet’s internal ...

Molten Martian core could explain red planet's magnetic quirks. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 11, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2025 / 04 / 250415143516.htm ...

UChicago-led analysis of Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover data may explain why planet was likely harsh desert for most ...

This virtual dissection of the red planet could change how we approach the evolution of rocky planets—including our own. It may even tell us how Mars lost its magnetic field about 4 billion ...

At optical wavelengths you would be able to see a glowing, red-hot planet with a molten lava surface.” TOI-6713.01 has all of this volcanic activity in part because of its unusual orbit.

GJ 367b is hellish world with a near global lava ocean. How it came to be that way will tell us if planet's like Earth are common, our freakish rarieties.

Closest exoplanet to Earth. Exoplanets describe planets that exist outside of Earth's solar system. None of them are particularly close, but HD 189733 b is one of the closest ones at around 64 ...

Until now, most studies of early Mars had relied on magnetic field models that gave the red planet an Earth-like inner core that's solid and surrounded by molten iron. The researchers were inspired to ...
