A white dwarf and a red dwarf star have been discovered closely orbiting each other emitting radio pulses every two hours. Their findings means we know it isn't just neutron stars that emit such ...

Astronomers have discovered four rocky exoplanets orbiting Barnard's star, the closest single star to our solar system. All four are too hot for life due to close orbits. These findings advance the ...
