Gliese 667 C
(Preview)
Gliese 667 C is a red dwarf star of spectral class of M2V. It has a mass of around 38% of that of the Sun and only 0.3% of the Sun's visual luminosity. The apparent magnitude is 10.25, giving an absolute magnitude of around 11.03. Two extrasolar planets, Gliese 667 Cb and Gliese 667 Cc, have been found orbi...

NGC 6811 exoplanets
(Preview)
First Transiting Planets in a Star Cluster Discovered It would thus seem an unlikely place to find alien worlds. Yet 3,000 light-years from Earth, in the star cluster NGC 6811, astronomers have found two planets smaller than Neptune orbiting Sun-like stars. The discovery, published in the journa...
