Astronomers say a flash of reflected light could expose Earth-like moons 39 light-years away
A team of U.S. and U.K. researchers has outlined a new way to detectalien moons by tracking subtle flashes of reflected light during lunar eclipses in distant planetary systems. The method, designed ...
Zurich — The ability to explore remote worlds in space has been enhanced through a polarization technique that allows the first ever detection of light reflected by extrasolar (exoplanet) planets. The ...
