The planets are in perfect synchrony, aligning every few orbits.
The six planets are two to three times the size of Earth and are in a class called sub-Neptunes.
The solar system is located about 100 light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices.
Astronomers have discovered a unique solar system with six planets in perfect synchrony, located approximately 100 light-years away in the constellation Coma Berenices. This discovery was made possible by NASA's Tess and the European Space Agency's Cheops satellites.
The six planets found are approximately two to three times the size of Earth, with densities closer to the gas giants in our own solar system. Their orbits range from nine to 54 days, positioning them closer to their star than Venus is to the sun, resulting in exceedingly high temperatures. These planets are larger than Earth but smaller than Neptune, placing them in a little-understood class referred to as sub-Neptunes.
This planetary system is in resonance, meaning that all six planets align every few orbits. This system has remained unchanged for over one billion years, untouched by outside forces since their birth. The planets are not within the star's habitable zone, making the likelihood of life as we know it unlikely.
The discovery of this rare in-sync solar system can provide valuable insights into the formation of solar systems across the Milky Way galaxy. However, it's important to note that these findings are based on current observations and further research is needed to fully understand the implications of this discovery.

The six planets found so far are roughly two to three times the size of Earth, with densities closer to the gas giants in our own solar system. Their orbits range from nine to 54 days, putting them closer to their star than Venus is to the sun and making them exceedingly hot.
