James Webb has captured more data about an alien planet, giving us the most precise look at an alien planet's atmosphere ever.
at an alien planet located 700 light-years away from our Sun. The planet in question is WASP-39b, and as of now, it’s the best-explored planet outside of our solar system.
WASP-39b is a boiling Saturn-like planet. With these new observations, James Webb has deciphered more about the planet’s chemistry and allowed astronomers to test new methods to detect extraterrestrial life, whichin some manner within our universe. Though the hunt has been less than fruitful so far, this could change things.
If WASP-39b sounds familiar, it’s because I’ve reported on this alien planet and James Webb’s observations of it in the past. Back in August, the space telescopein the exoplanet’s atmosphere, a major breakthrough for astronomers and the hunt to better understand our universe’s various planets.
