In two related firsts, the James Webb Space Telescope has discovered sand-filled rains on a distant exoplanet as its "sandcastle" partner world forms from sandy matter before the eyes of astronomers.
It can be found inside gas giants such as Jupiter and is briefly created during meteorite impacts or in laser fusion ...
Plants’ temperature-sensing system could also be modified. In a second Science paper, researchers propose a new way of understanding the network of proteins that control plants’ responses to heat.
Exoplanets are the celestial bodies orbiting stars other than our Sun. Their small size makes them difficult to detect from Earth, particularly as they appear much dimmer than their parent stars ...
