James Webb captures exoplanets disintegrating due to extreme stellar heat, revealing dust trails, chemical clues, and ...
Exoplanet WASP-127b is a hot Jupiter, a gas giant planet orbiting very close to its star. The system is more than 500 ...
Scientists found winds on WASP-127b moving at 33,000 km/h. These are the fastest jetstream winds ever recorded on any planet ...
A tidally locked planet's year is the same length as its day. The moon is tidally locked to the Earth, which is why we always ...
Another of the planet's interesting features is that it always presents the same face to the star - a behaviour scientists call being "tidally locked". Earth's Moon does exactly the same thing ...
Astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of WASP-127b, a giant exoplanet. Reaching speeds up to 33,000 km/h, the winds make up the fastest jet-stream of its kind ever ...
The extreme nature of the weather on this planet may be because researchers think that it is tidally locked, meaning one side of the planet always faces its star, while the other side always faces ...
Here on Earth, the fastest puff of wind on record was a blustery 407 kilometers (253 miles) per hour, measured on Australia's ...
The newly discovered and possibly habitable Earth-sized planet has an orbit of 28 days. It’s also possible that it is tidally locked. It’s impossible to detect whether this habitable Earth ...
Like many small, rocky planets orbiting close-in around red dwarf stars like Trappist-1, this world is expected to be tidally locked just like the moon is to Earth. That means the planet does not ...
A n Australian man who moved abroad has revealed that he only realized that the Moon looks different in the Northern ...
