Para astronom telah mengidentifikasi sistem planet langka sejauh 190 tahun cahaya dari Bumi yang menampilkan Jupiter panas berbagi orbit dengan mini-Neptunus yang lebih dekat ke bintangnya. Konfigurasi ini dulunya dianggap hampir mustahil. Pengamatan baru dari Teleskop Luar Angkasa James Webb memberikan wawasan baru tentang bagaimana planet-planet tersebut terbentuk.

Sistem yang berpusat pada bintang TOI-1130 ini pertama kali dideteksi pada tahun 2020 menggunakan data dari Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite milik NASA. Mini-Neptunus menyelesaikan orbit setiap empat hari sementara Jupiter panas memerlukan waktu delapan hari. Para peneliti mencatat bahwa Jupiter panas biasanya tidak memiliki pendamping di dekatnya karena pengaruh gravitasinya yang kuat.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected an unusually metal-poor atmosphere on the Jupiter-sized exoplanet TOI-5205 b, which orbits a small, cool star. The planet's atmospheric metallicity is lower than that of its host star, challenging theories of giant planet formation. The findings come from a study led by researchers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center and Carnegie Science.

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have detected thick water ice clouds on Epsilon Indi Ab, a cold gas giant resembling Jupiter. The finding, led by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Astronomy, reveals less ammonia than expected in the planet's atmosphere. This challenges existing models and advances techniques for studying distant worlds.
