Scientists have for the first time discovered a magnetic field surrounding another rocky planet outside of our solar system.

Using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope and other space and ground-based observatories, astronomers investigating these developments have made an unexpected and rare discovery: a pair of gravitationally bound quasars, both blazing away inside two merging galaxies.
