James Webb Telescope Detects Direct Signs Of Carbon Dioxide In Other Planet System

By: Volodymyr Sliesariev, Journalist
This discovery is significant because HR8799 is a relatively young system, at only about 30 million years old. This means the system gives off a lot of infrared light, providing researchers with a perfect example of planetary formation in action. The infrared light allows scientists to study the planets' atmospheres in detail, explaining their chemical composition and the processes that shaped them.

This artist’s impression compares the seven planets orbiting the ultra-cool red dwarf star TRAPPIST-1 to the Earth at the same scale. New observations, when combined with very sophisticated analysis, have now yielded good estimates of the densities of all seven of the Earth-sized planets and suggest that they are rich in volatile materials, probably water. They are shown to the same scale but not in the correct relative positions.

Studies also show it has enough oxygen and a good atmosphere density level. The only problem with inhabiting it is its distance from Earth.

The Beginning Of Our Universe

By: Arthur Pandey, Journalist
Technically, the universe expanded from an explosion which is called The Big Bang. As space quickly expanded, the universe cooled and matter was formed. One second after the Big Bang, according to scientists, the universe was filled with tons of neutrons, protons, electrons, anti-electrons, photons and neutrinos.
