The Spanish instrument called CAFE (Calar Alto Fiber-fed Échelle spectrograph, for its acronym in English), installed in the 2.2-meter telescope of the Calar Alto Observatory (Almería, Spain), has discovered its first exoplanet that has been christened such as Kepler 91b.
Messier 33, also known as the Triangle Galaxy, is located about 3 million light years distant from Earth, and is the protagonist of the most detailed image ever seen of this galaxy.
