NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope<\/a> has detected signs of water, along with evidence for clouds and haze, in the of a hot, puffy gas giant planet orbiting a Sun-like star over a thousand Light<\/a> years away, the U.S. space agency said on July 13.<\/p>\n

The observation is the most detailed of its kind to date, demonstrating Webb’s unprecedented ability to analyse distant atmospheres, according to NASA. WASP-96 b is one of more than 5,000 confirmed exoplanets in the Milky Way.<\/p>\n

Located roughly 1,150 light-years away in the southern-sky constellation Phoenix, it represents a type of gas giant that has no direct analogue in our Solar System<\/a>, it said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The transmission spectrum revealed the previously hidden details of the atmosphere: the unambiguous signature of water, indications of haze, and evidence of clouds that were thought not to exist based on prior observations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
