WASP-121b, also known as Tylos, is a giant, ultra-hot, gaseous planet located 858 light years from Earth. It's hot because it ...

Researchers identified the likely planetary candidate’s infrared light after blocking out its host star’s overwhelming glare ...

Equipped with new findings, astronomers now hope to study Neptune with the James Webb Space Telescope over a full solar cycle, an 11-year period of activity driven by the Sun's magnetic field.

Neptune’s Lost Aurorae First Hinted At 36 Years Ago Has Been Captured For First ... We’re lucky to have a brand new JWST programme that will observe Neptune over the course of a month in 2026.

Hammel and her colleagues used JWST’s NIRSpec, a powerful infrared imaging tool, to capture spectroscopic images of Neptune and analyse the different wavelengths of light emitted by the planet.

The space-based observatory has revolutionized the way we see space, and it can now add another remarkable accomplishment to ...

Astronomers, using the James Webb Space Telescope, captured the first direct images of Neptune's auroras, revealing light shows previously believed to exist but unseen. These auroras appear at ...

Now, with this new James Webb image of Neptune, we’re seeing rings we’ve never captured before. Image source: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI. It’s a striking reminder of just how powerful James Webb is.

NASA's flagship James Webb Space Telescope has captured the first-ever images of auroral activity on Neptune, after years of tantalizing hints.. The images in question of Neptune were captured by ...
