For the study, which was led by Dr. Everett Schlawin from the University of Arizona, the researchers used data obtained from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope (HST) and James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) ...
Astronomers using NASA’s state-of-the-art James Webb Space Telescope have made a groundbreaking discovery of GJ 1214 b, a planet unlike any we've seen before. Located 48 light-years away in the ...
GJ 1214 b, for instance is among these fantastic wonders, which the world has to ponder over. James Webb Telescope uncover exoplanet GJ 1214 b with amazing composition . Videos. 58:58.
GJ 1214 b orbits its central star, GJ 1214, at a distance of about one-seventieth of the distance between the Earth and the Sun. This means that the planet is in a so-called tidally locked rotation.
This artist's concept depicts the planet GJ 1214 b, a "mini-Neptune" with what is likely a steamy, hazy atmosphere. NASA/JPL-Caltech/R. Hurt (IPAC) ...
The exoplanet Enaiposha (GJ 1214 b), previously thought to be a mini-Neptune, has been reclassified as a "Super-Venus" following new data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).
Though TOI-421 b and GJ 1214 b are both sub-Neptunes, they vary in temperature: TOI-421 b is a toasty 1,340 degrees Fahrenheit, while GJ 1214 b is a relatively cool 370 degrees Fahrenheit.
GJ 1214 b was thought to be either a rocky planet with a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, or a water-dominated world. Indeed, the name “Enaiposha”, ...
GJ 1214 b is tidally locked, meaning it has a permanently star-facing "day side" and a perpetual "night side" that always stares out into space.
GJ 1214 b’s discovery challenges the traditional thinking around planetary formation and evolution. Typically, planets of this size are expected to have a hydrogen-rich atmosphere or be ...
