NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope unveils complex atmosphere of starless super-Jupiter
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered complex atmospheric shifts in SIMP 0136, a free-floating planetary object. Findings include iron-rich and silicate clouds, as well as enigmatic hot spots and chemical changes in carbon compounds. This research provides critical insights into exoplanet atmospheres, aiding the search for habitable planets.
