SERAMBINEWS.COM — Planet rocky rock with unprecedented detail discovered by space telescope James Webb.
This strange planet is thought to have something in common with earth and continue to be studied from the telescope.
The study targets of this telescope are two ‘SuperEarths’, Earth-like exoplanets. The telescope’s scientific consortium has an agenda of studying the geology of these small planets, which are more than 50 light-years away.
According to scientists, this new work will be something big for the observatory, which will be out of commissioning in the next few weeks.
Rocky planets are harder to see than gas giants in current telescope technology.
This is due to the relative brightness of the smaller planets next to the star and their relatively small size.
However, the telescope’s powerful mirror James Webb and the location of outer space should have allowed him to examine two planets slightly larger than Earth, known as “SuperEarths.”
As is well known, none of these worlds is habitable, but the proof can still be done by investigation for in-depth study in the future.
Two Earth-like planets outside the Solar System highlighted in upcoming research Telescope Outer Space James Webb these include 55 Cancri e which is very hot and covered in lava and LHS 3844 b which lacks a substantial atmosphere.
For information, 55 Cancri e orbits its parent star at a distance of 1.5 million miles (2.4 million km), about four percent of the relative distance between Mercury and the sun.
