Astronomers used JWST’s coronagraphs in a unique way to capture new images of exoplanets in the HR 8799 and 51 Eridani ...

Webb’s data shows that HR 8799’s four gas giants likely formed via core accretion, the same process that shaped Jupiter and Saturn in our solar system. Webb detected carbon dioxide and carbon ...

Here's where the James Webb Space Telescope comes in. Its advanced technology, including its large mirror and suite of ...

Last week, astronomers unveiled exciting new images of planets in the HR 8799 and 51 Eridani star systems — and it was all thanks to a creative use of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

"We have been waiting for 10 years to confirm that our finely tuned operations of the telescope would also allow us to access the inner planets. Now the results are in, and we can do interesting ...

From this route, the resulting exoplanet would be expected to share roughly the same composition as its parent star. ‘The ...

The findings provide strong evidence that four giant exoplanets 130 light-years from Earth formed much like Jupiter and ...

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured its first direct images of carbon dioxide in a planet outside the solar system in HR 8799, a multiplanet system 130 light-years away that has long been ...

Astronomers have announced that the James Webb Space Telescope has successfully captured its first direct images of carbon dioxide gas on a planet beyond our solar system. The findings are both a ...

Carbon dioxide detected in the atmosphere of exoplanets. The post Carbon Dioxide in Distant Exoplanets Discovered By ...

The JWST has spotted the presence of carbon dioxide on HR 8799’s four known planets, part of a system astronomers use to explore the formation of our own system. The results are consistent with ...
