Water vapor detection of exoplanet atmospheres has been a hot topic. This scientific question is included in the first set of results published by JWST. But it’s even more difficult to detect the presence of water vapor on exoplanets in the Neptune desert. This year, researchers detected water vapor on TOI-674 b for the first time by analyzing atmospheric transmission spectrum. It’s very exciting. This discovery provides an important target for subsequent detection with higher precision by JWST.

JWST is currently revealing many previously unseen or undiscovered properties of our Universe. Even in the very first image released, three red spiral galaxies, which are super rare in our local Universe, can now be seen and analyzed down to structural details as never before. What can these weird galaxies tell us about the so-called cosmic noon and the evolution of galaxy formation?
