Artist’s impression of WASP b and its staff. Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA and J. Olmsted (STScI) Since the first planet orbiting a star other than the sun was discovered in 1995, we’ve come to realize that planets and planetary systems are more diverse than we ever imagined. Such distant worlds, exoplanets, give us the opportunity …

Images captured by NASA’s James Webb Telescope reveal new information about the molecular and chemical profile of a distant exoplanet named WASP-39b. WASP-39b is an exoplanet, which means that it is a planet located outside our solar system, some 700 light years from our planet. For the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online …

(CNN) — The James Webb Space Telescope has spotted one of the first galaxies formed after the big bang, about 350 million years after the universe began. The galaxy, called GLASS-z12, and another galaxy formed about 450 million years after the big bang, were discovered over the summer, shortly after the mighty space observatory began …
