Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope, NASA said researchers have spotted silicate cloud features in the swirling atmosphere of a planet 40 light-years away from Earth.
Theoretical physicist Dr. Michio Kaku explains the significance of new images provided by NASA's Webb Space Telescope on 'Sunday Night in America.'have spotted silicate cloud features in a distant planet's atmosphere.
As the atmosphere constantly brings hotter material up – with high temperatures reaching 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit – and pushes colder material down, the result is dramatic brightness changes.
