"NASA's Stunning Discovery: 7 Scorching Exoplanets Orbiting a Distant Star"
NASA's Kepler Space Telescope has discovered a system of seven exoplanets, known as Kepler-385, that are being bombarded by radiation from their parent star. These blisteringly hot planets are larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune and receive more radiation than any planet in our solar system. The discovery is part of a new catalog of exoplanet candidates and multi-planet systems created by the Kepler mission, providing astronomers with valuable information about the characteristics of exoplanets. The Kepler-385 system is located 4,672 light years away and contains one of the few known systems with more than six planets.
