The researchers peered through the atmosphere of WASP-121b, an exoplanet also called Tylos, by combining all four telescope units of the European Southern Observatory’s Chile-based Very Large ...
Examining the exoplanet Tylos: Astronomers have discovered by looking through an exoplanet’s atmosphere and mapping its 3D structure for the first time Using the European Southern Observatory’s Very ...
Eager to know more about how the exoplanet's oddball weather patterns came to be, an international team of scientists turned to the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope ...
Six planets are visible in the night sky right now. On Feb. 28, Mercury will add a seventh planet to the planetary parade. Venus, Mars and Jupiter are 'great naked-eye targets' for beginning ...
Astronomers have discovered that the exoplanet WASP-121 b, located 900 light-years away, experiences extreme weather conditions, including powerful winds and liquid metal rain. The research was ...
The belts were probably sculpted by unseen exoplanets, the authors conclude. “What I find the most exciting is that this study shows again that planets are everywhere. Even if we can’t see ...
"Even the strongest hurricanes in the solar system seem calm in comparison." WASP-121 b is the definition of an "extreme" exoplanet — it's so hot that it rains droplets of liquid iron.
Tylos (or WASP-121b) is a gaseous, giant exoplanet located some 900 light-years away in the constellation Puppis. Using the ESPRESSO instrument on ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), scientists ...
The newly found system is centered. (Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech/R. Hurt) NASA scientists have detected a star and trailing exoplanet that may be sailing through the Milky Way with unprecedented speed.

And astonishingly, it's managed to drag its exoplanet along, as the poor world hangs on for dear life. "We think this is a so-called super-Neptune world orbiting a low-mass star at a distance that ...
