Suara.com – Recent analysis of space telescope observations Hubble Collected in 2017, revealed a An alien planet This can create new situations.
Called GJ 1132 b, This planet orbits a red dwarf star about 41 light years from Earth and absorbs a lot of star radiation during its rotation.
“This is very interesting because we believe the atmosphere that we find now is regenerating, so it could become a secondary atmosphere,” said Raisa Estrela, an exoplanet scientist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JBL). NASA, Quoted Space.com, Monday (15/3/2021).
Atmosphere is a difficult thing to maintain. Ancient Mars, for example, once had a dense atmosphere, but has lost most of its atmosphere since the Red Planet lost its magnetic field about 4 billion years ago.

The same thing can happen with exoplanets. GJ is rich in hydrogen and helium. Scientists believe that after 1132b lost its basic atmosphere, it became an empty planet.
But Hubble’s observations show that, currently, GJ Figure 1132b shows that hydrogen is covered in a mist mixture rich in hydrogen cyanide, methane and aerosols.
To understand what happens in planetary systems, scientists have used GJ. 1132b sees a close relationship with its star.
But because of the details of the orbits of the planets, the star GJ
This new atmosphere can be created from gases emitted from the planet’s molten rock.

NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, currently slated for launch this fall, will be launched by GJ. The team of experts believes that the surface of 1132b can be seen in infrared light.
