It is the TOI-1752 system, about 337 light years from Earth. To locate it, the TESS satellite, a NASA satellite, was used to detect decreases in the brightness of stars when a planet passes by.
The Teide Observatory contributes to confirming the planetary nature of TOI-1752 with observations made from the Carlos Sánchez Telescope The TOI-1752 system, located about 337 light years from Earth, houses two planets with very different characteristics: one orbits so close to its star that it could have a molten rock surface, while the other is in the so-called optimistic habitable zone, where, under certain atmospheric conditions, liquid wat…
The star TOI-1752, at 337 light years, houses one lava star and another in the optimal area to contain liquid water, according to data from the TESS mission.
A study led by Spanish scientists confirms the existence of two interesting exoplanets of the same planetary system located 337 light years away. One of them is a world with extreme temperatures and the second could have the characteristics that allow it to have life. Read
