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,

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

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
