Earth appears to be a chill blue planet, but deep down, it’s really a metalhead. Its outer core is mostly molten iron (and ...
Understanding these interactions is crucial not just for studying Earth’s core but also for exploring the deep interiors of other planets, such as gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn, where high ...
It has a mass about 13 times that of Jupiter, and is thought to have the structure and chemical composition of a giant gas planet, though its true characteristics have not yet been determined.
The gas giants outside our solar system are not capable of hosting extraterrestrial life, but do offer clues in a lingering ...
NASA’s James Webb Telescope captured direct images of gas giants in HR 8799, revealing their carbon dioxide-rich atmospheres.
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 directly observed the key chemical of carbon dioxide in planets outside of our solar ...
In 2022, the Webb telescope detected unequivocal evidence of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere of a distant exoplanet called ...
