An exoplanet has been discovered orbiting Barnard's star by the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope. Barnard ...
Planet c is the heavyweight of the bunch, with a mass 33.5% that of Earth's. It orbits Barnard's Star at a distance of 2.55 million miles (4.1 million kilometers/0.0274 AU) and has an orbital ...
Barnard’s Star is a dim, reddish ball of gas just six light-years away from Earth in the constellation Ophiuchus. It is the nearest stand-alone star to our sun, but with only one-fifth the mass ...

Discovered in 1916 by American astronomer Edward Emerson Barnard, Barnard’s Star is a small and slow-burning red dwarf classified by astronomers as an M-type star.
Barnard b [2] is 20 times closer to Barnard’s star than the planet Mercury is to the sun. It has a surface temperature around 257° Fahrenheit and a full year lasts a little over three days here ...
The Barnard’s Star system. The previously discovered planet, Barnard b, is likely a rocky planet with roughly 30 percent Earth’s mass and an orbital period (or “year”) equal to ...
Astronomers detect a planet near Barnard's star, which is relatively close to Earth Only six light-years from the Sun, Barnard b is boiling hot, but the new planet hints at other nearby worlds ...
Astronomers have discovered four planets that are just a fraction of the mass of Earth orbiting Barnard’s Star, which is 6 light-years from Earth.
Barnard's star is a red dwarf, the smallest type of regular star and much smaller and less luminous than our sun. At about 6 light years away, it is the closest single star - one not orbiting with ...
There have been many claims of exoplanets orbiting Barnard's Star over the years, dating all the way back to the 1960s. Barnard's Star is a red dwarf, also known as an M-dwarf, and is noticeable ...
