JWST Finds Methane Atmosphere on Temperate Exoplanet

It’s 2165, and methane is in high demand, especially after the Titan Treaty of 2145 made it illegal to harvest methane from Saturn’s moon, Titan. But the advent of interstellar travel has made exoplan...

Hints of Life on Distant World K2-18b Meet Skepticism

Scientists question if life exists on exoplanet K2-18b after new data analysis shows no clear evidence for life-linked molecules.

New analysis of data from K2-18b shows no clear signs of life molecules, unlike earlier reports. This is a big change from previous excitement.

🌍☀️ Scientists at #ArizonaState and #Caltech used the #JWST to produce the first weather report for WASP-94A b, a gas giant 700 light-years from #Earth.

The #planet has two different #weather sides: a morning edge with #clouds made of vaporized #rock and an almost cloud-free evening edge, driven by temperature differences and powerful winds.

JWST sees partly cloudy skies on a distant, giant exoplanet

An out-of-this-world weather report from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope reveals how clouds move across a giant planet hundreds of light-years from Earth

Supermassive black holes can render exoplanets uninhabitable at great distances https://phys.org/news/2026-05-supermassive-black-holes-exoplanets-uninhabitable.html 🪐 #Exoplanet #Exoplanets #AlienWorlds #AlienLife #Extraterrestrials #Space #Science #SolarSystem #Astrobiology
Supermassive black holes can render exoplanets uninhabitable at great distances

The thinking around exoplanet habitability is mostly concerned with a planet's distance from its star. Too close, and any surface water is boiled away into space. Too far, and surface water is frozen. Both are severe limits on the prospects for life. Habitability depends on an exoplanet being in the Goldilocks Zone, a distance range around a star where liquid water can persist.

How Mars can help us understand 'marginal' exoplanets

Mars holds a special place in the solar system. It represents marginal habitability. This means it transitioned from warm and wet and potentially hospitable, to cold and dry and inhospitable.
