For years, astronomers thought an exoplanet&#8217;s location in a star&#8217;s habitable zone was enough to make it an Earth-like world. But some stars are more active than our sun, exposing planets in their habitable zones to far more radiation than Earth receives. Astronomers have increasingly recognized that a planet&#8217;s magnetic field, which shields Earth from harmful radiation, could be a key characteristic in identifying Earth-like worlds.<\/div>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2026-09-ska-magnetic-fields-distant-exoplanets.html\" target=\"_blank\">Go to Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Studying exoplanets has given astronomers insights into the characteristics that could help them find life beyond Earth.
