New system for classifying exoplanets
Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. Here's today's news:
g Stars - What is the potential habitability of the nearby star Nu 2 Lupi? See article.
g Abodes - Although the number of exoplanets discovered is reaching the thousands, few are "Earth-like" in terms of their suitability for life as we know it. A team of scientists is now proposing a new system for classifying exoplanets to help identify planets that are theoretically conducive to life in less earthlike conditions. See article.
g Cosmicus - A new computer program may help track near Earth objects (NEOs) and compute more accurate orbits. Monitoring NEOs can help scientists determine whether or not they pose a risk to life's future on Earth. See article.
