As the field of exoplanet atmospheric science rapidly moves towards understanding these fascinating worlds as complex, three-dimensional entities, today’s paper explores how we can find non-uniform cloud cover on exoplanets using JWST!
A brief summary of some of the major space missions that are planning to launch in the 2020s.
With the launch of TESS, we will soon have many more exoplanet candidates. But how do we determine which are the most valuable for follow-up observations?
NASA’s TESS spacecraft has launched! Today’s paper predicts how many exoplanets it will find.
If we don’t understand starspots, we won’t understand exoplanet atmospheres.
With the imminent launch of the James Webb Space Telescope next year, many scientists are asking what is next? Today’s bite, which focuses on a recent workshop on global coordination: future space-based Ultraviolet-Optical-Infrared Telescopes, hopefully represents the first steps towards the next big space telescope.
