Teide 1 is distinguished from ordinary stars by h...
PSR 1257+12 c is a rocky exoplanet orbiting the pulsar PSR B1257+12. Its discovery in 1992 alongside other planets around this rapidly rotating neutron star represents the first confirmed system of its kind. This planet, classified as a super-Earth, is particularly notable for providing valuable dat...
PSR 1257+12 b is a small exoplanet orbiting a pulsar, designated PSR B1257+12. Its discovery represents a significant achievement in astronomy due to being the first confirmed planet found around such an object. The planet, estimated to be moon-sized and sub-earth in mass, offers valuable data for s...
PSR 1257+12 d, also known as Phobetor, is a super-Earth exoplanet orbiting the millisecond pulsar Lich, located roughly 2,300 light-years away. Discovered in 1994 using pulsar timing methods, it is part of the first confirmed exoplanetary system. The planet has a mass about four times that of Earth...
