"Hubble's Discovery: Unveiling Extreme Cyclones on a Distant Exoplanet"

TL;DR Summary
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has detected extreme weather activities, including massive cyclones, on the uninhabitable exoplanet WASP-121 b, located 880 light-years away. The planet's dynamic atmosphere, reaching temperatures of 3,400 degrees Fahrenheit, exhibits notable changes over time, with massive weather fronts and storms repeatedly created and destroyed due to the large temperature difference between its star-facing and dark sides. This discovery is crucial for studying distant planetary weather and represents an important early step in understanding weather patterns on exoplanets.
