According to new research based on data from the Kepler space observatory, there could be up to 300 million potentially habitable planets in our galaxy. The nice news about the new estimations is that they could be very close to Earth; none of these possibly habitable exoplanets are more than 30 light-years away.

Using the combined might of two of Hawaii's powerful telescopes, astronomers have captured what they are describing as "groundbreaking" sharp new images of a planetary system still in the process of being born.
When ‘Oumuamua passed through our solar system in 2017, no one knew where it came from. Astronomers, on the other hand, think they know how Comet 2I/Borisov got here.
Physicists say they've found evidence in data from Europe's Large Hadron Collider for three never-before-seen combinations of quarks, just as the world's largest particle-smasher is beginning a new round of high-energy experiments.
