Hot Clouds Observed on Exoplanet with Dual Suns by James Webb Space Telescope

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has directly imaged the atmosphere of exoplanet VHS 1256 b, which orbits two stars and is about 19 times more massive than Jupiter. The telescope detected silicate clouds, similar to sand on Earth, and a variety of chemicals including water, methane, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. This marks the largest number of molecules ever identified on a planet outside our solar system. The team is still analyzing the data to better understand the tempestuous atmosphere of this exoplanet.
