SwRI study reveals exotic chemistry of superheated sub-Neptune TOI-270 dwar
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Apr 10, 2025
A new study led by the Southwest Research Institute offers groundbreaking insights into TOI-270 d, an exoplanet orbiting 73 light years from Earth. The planet, falling between Earth and Neptune in size, may be a rocky super-Earth cloaked in a dense, scorching atmosphere. Researchers believe TOI-270 d could serve as a key reference point for understanding sub-Neptune exoplanets-a planetary class
