Astronomers May Have Found a Planet in The Habitable Zone of The Hottest Star Yet - ScienceAlert
Artist impression of one type of Delta Scuti pulsation, that is driven by waves (blue arrows) traveling between the star's core and surface. (NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center) Detecting planets outside of our Solar System mostly relies on measuring minute changes in the light of distant stars. If this were akin to finding a needle in a haystack, astronomers would delight. But it's more like distinguishing the glow of a firefly flitting in front of the nuclear brilliance of a hydrogen bomb. Impressively, astronomers have found more than 6,300 exoplanets so far using various methods. They are a diverse menagerie of mouthwatering worlds, including one that seems to be emitting a weirdly tantalizing signal, as well as Earth-like analogs bathed in the crimson light of dim, blood-hued red dwarfs. Astronomers may have just made another milestone discovery in the search for intrinsically intriguing worlds: the hottest star to potentially host a habitable-zone planet, a giant world named HD 156295 b. If confirmed, this would be the first known exoplanet in the habitable zone of a massive, A-type star, named HD 156295.
