Planets Under a Red Sun: Nasa Image of the Day Gallery
This artist's concept illustrates a young, red dwarf star surrounded by
three planets. Such stars are dimmer and smaller than yellow stars like
our sun, which makes them ideal targets for astronomers wishing to take
images of planets outside our solar system, called exoplanets. NASA's
Galaxy Evolution Explorer is helping to identify young, red dwarf stars
that are close to us by detecting their ultraviolet light (stars give
off a lot of ultraviolet light in their youth).
