JWST observations just spotted traces of water vapor, along with clues that suggest a powerful magnetic field, on exoplanet WASP-18b.

The James Webb Space Telescope spotted water in the atmosphere of the exoplanet WASP-18 b, which reaches nearly 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit (2,700 degrees Celsius).

Montreal, Canada (SPX) Jun 01, 2023 - Theres an intriguing exoplanet out there - 400 light-years out there - that is so tantalising that astronomers have been studying it since its discovery in 2009. One orbit for WASP-18 b around its

Scientists first made a brightness map of the exoplanet, then a temperature map of the atmosphere.

WASP-18 b, shown in an artist's concept, is a gas giant exoplanet 10 times more massive than Jupiter that orbits its star in just 23 hours. Researchers

While water vapor was previously detected in the atmosphere of exoplanet WASP-18b—an ultrahot gas giant 10 times more massive than Jupiter—University of Michigan scientists have confirmed that NASA's James Webb Space Telescope unveiled once-hidden water features that had eluded the ground-based Hubb

Astronomers have been obsessed with WASP-18 b since it's discovery in 2009. Now the JWST's NIRISS instrument is feeding that obsession.
