It may rain sand on this mysterious cotton candy' exoplanet, where scientists just made an Earth-like discovery

Scientists have discovered that an exoplanet called WASP-107b has high-altitude clouds composed of tiny sand particles.
This discovery was made possible by the Mid-Infrared Instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope.
WASP-107b's fluffy nature allows scientists to study its atmosphere more deeply than they can with larger, more massive planets. [ more ]

Clouds made of sand make for a strange kind of rain on this hot planet

A gas giant planet called WASP-107b has clouds made of sand, according to observations by the James Webb Space Telescope.
The sand in the clouds of WASP-107b acts like water on Earth, falling towards the planet's hotter interior and evaporating to form clouds again.
This discovery provides evidence of the variety of bizarre clouds that can exist beyond our solar system. [ more ]

See the second farthest galaxy ever discovered in new NASA image

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered two new galaxies within the Pandora's Cluster, one of which is now the second-farthest galaxy seen by human eyes.
The newly discovered galaxy, Z-13, was estimated to have emitted light when the universe was about 330 million years old, and it traveled for about 13.4 billion light years to reach the JWST.
The discovery of these galaxies provides valuable insights into the early universe and the formation and growth of galaxies during that time. [ more ]
