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

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

WASP-127b's diameter is about 30% larger than Jupiter, our solar system's largest planet. But its mass is only about 16% that ...
