Astronomers from the University of Arizona, along with an international group of researchers, observed the atmosphere of a hot and uniquely inflated exoplanet using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

Astronomers used NASA's James Webb Space Telescope to detect atmospheric asymmetry in the exoplanet WASP-107b. This unprecedented observation reveals differences in temperature and cloud properties between the planet's east and west sides,

Due to how their air moves, the atmospheric conditions of hot exoplanets are expected to change between morning and evening. Ground-based observations at high detail have found this difference in several ultra-hot exoplanets (over 2,000 K), but it’s unclear how common this is among all exoplanets.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope astronomers have found that a strange inflated exoplanet is even weirder than they realized finding a strange asymmetry in its atmosphere.

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has made a remarkable discovery of an unusual galaxy, GS-NDG-9422, found about one billion years after the Big Bang. This galaxy stands out for its unprecedented light signature—its gas is outshining its stars,
