James Webb Space Telescope Discoveries Challenge Theories About Asteroid Psyche’s Origin
Recent findings from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have introduced new uncertainties about asteroid 16 Psyche. Known for its high iron content, Psyche was previously considered a potential remnant of a protoplanet, providing a valuable opportunity to study the early solar system. However, JWST has detected hydrated minerals on its surface, ...

NASA’s James Webb Telescope Detects Signs of Water on Distant ‘WASP-96 b’ Planet
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) detected signs of water and evidence of clouds and haze, in the atmosphere of WASP-96 b, located roughly 1,150 light-years away in the southern-sky constellation Phoenix, and one of more than 5,000 confirmed exoplanets in the Milky Way. The most detailed observation of its kind to date, it demonstrates Webb'...
