The first observations of Pluto by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal dramatic phenomena on its surface, like ...
JWST finally detects radiation from Pluto that conclusively determines that Pluto's haze indeed impacts its climate.
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered that a hazy sky over frozen Pluto is helping to cool the dwarf planet's ...
But he and his co-authors also made a clear prediction in their 2017 paper: If the haze is cooling Pluto, it should be emitting strong mid-infrared radiation, and that should be observable once a big ...
A recent study published in Nature Astronomy has confirmed a groundbreaking hypothesis about Pluto’s atmospheric conditions, ...
JWST confirms Pluto’s haze cools its mesosphere and drives methane escape, coating Charon’s poles red. The haze absorbs UV light, heats the upper atmosphere, and re-radiates heat as infrared.
New James Webb Space Telescope data reveal Pluto's high-altitude haze is a key driver of the climate on the dwarf planet, ...
