The fastest wind ever measured in our solar system was on Neptune, with gusts of more than 1,100 miles per hour. But those powerful gales are nothing compared to the supersonic winds that astronomers ...

Using NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), an international team of astronomers has discovered two ...

The so-called 'planetesimal belts' are filled with tiny millimeter-sized particles created by collisions between comets.

Astronomers discovered the exoplanet in 2016, a gas giant that’s slightly larger than Jupiter with a fraction of its mass, ...

Explore the extraordinary weather phenomena on WASP-127b, where supersonic winds reach speeds of 33,000 kilometers per hour.

Scientists found winds on WASP-127b moving at 33,000 km/h. These are the fastest jetstream winds ever recorded on any planet ...

Astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of WASP-127b, a giant exoplanet. Reaching speeds ...

Planets outside our solar system can be wild, weird places. Astronomers have discovered exoplanets shaped like a rugby ball, or where it rains gems, or which have one hemisphere covered in lava. And ...

To put the wind speeds into perspective, the fastest winds ever observed in our solar system are on Neptune, at a speed of ...

Astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of WASP-127b, a giant exoplanet. Reaching speeds up to 33,000 km/h, the winds make up the fastest jet-stream of its kind ever ...
