Webb finds differences in the eternal morning and evening skies on a distant world

First clear evidence of different conditions in the transition zones between the day and night sides of a tidally locked hot Jupiter with the James Webb Space Telescope

Happy to share the final report from the Working Group on Strategic Exoplanet Initiatives with HST and JWST! We recommended a 500 hr DDT program for rocky exoplanet characterization, key science themes for HST and JWST, optimal timing and support, & more. Check it out here: arxiv.org/abs/2404.02932
