"JWST Captures Rare Images of Exoplanets Orbiting Dead Stars, Shedding Light on Solar System's Fate"

Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have potentially discovered two gas giant exoplanets orbiting white dwarf stars, offering insight into the possible fate of planets in our Solar System. If confirmed, these would be the first directly-imaged planets similar in age and separation to those in our own Solar System, demonstrating that widely separated giant planets like Jupiter can survive stellar evolution. The discovery raises questions about the fate of planetary systems when their stars reach the end of their lives, and further observations are recommended to confirm and study these fascinating findings.
