This “first-light” image from the Europa-UVS instrument shows data at far-ultraviolet wavelengths, photons more energetic than the UV light that gives us sunburns on Earth. Light passes from its telescope

Contributions of molecules in the JWST MIRI range for the transmission spectrum of K2-18 b, assuming 1% CO2 and CH4, and 10−5 by volume for each of DMS, diethyl sulfide,

Diagram of TOI-5800 system. The star is shown to scale with the planet’s orbit. — astro-ph.EP Though missions such as Kepler, K2, and TESS have discovered >2,000 sub-Neptune and Neptunian

Peak Δ14C regional response (colour code is shown on the right) over land to the ESPE of 12350 BC (model experiment GW). The central panel depicts the geographical distribution, while

(Top Left) Heatmap of the mean seasonal variations for the very near surface of Europa (x 1 µm) as function of albedo and latitude. (Bottom) Interpolation of the seasonal variations

Keith’s note: this just came out of my head as a stream of inter-related events. Some times I feel like Forrest Gump. Other times I am in Luke Skywalker mode.

Overview of the chemical elements detected in the transmission spectra of Ultra-Hot Jupiters (UHJ). Planets are ordered by decreasing equilibrium temperature. WASP-33 b is a more challenging target due to

The HPF-SpecMatch spectra fit results for order index 5. Top: two plots showing the five best-fit stars (red) selected to compose the spectra. The size and transparency of these five

Displaying the sudden change in spectral features for oxygen-rich atmospheric spectra. Type B atmospheres spectra do not show any CH4 features, as do type C which are extremely oxygen-rich. Both
