"Mysterious Red Lights and Auroras: NASA's James Webb Telescope Discoveries"

NASA's James Webb telescope has discovered bright red lights in a distant brown dwarf, with methane emissions in one of 12 cold brown dwarfs it was observing, called W1935, glowing like a bright red crown. This discovery is unusual as methane emissions are commonly found in gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn, where heating in the upper atmosphere powers the emissions linked to aurorae. The team theorizes that the emission may be facilitated by an internal process in the brown dwarf similar to the atmospheric phenomena of Jupiter, or interactions with nearby moons or interstellar plasma, presenting a puzzling extension of a solar system phenomenon without any stellar irradiation to help in the explanation.
