Researchers are constantly examining new spectral data collected by powerful telescopes, such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Most of the time, when they identify spectral characteristics (specific absorption or emission ranges of different types of light from a planet, moon or star), these characteristics are known to be caused by [...]
On the surface of the dwarf planet and the Moon, some unknown substance absorbs light in a surprisingly similar way.
An unknown substance has been detected on the surface of Pluto and Titan. But after several analyses, it remains impossible to identify with certainty, which makes scientists perplexed. When we observe small distant stars, direct imaging is rarely interesting.
Two very different worlds of the Solar System have just become connected by an unexpected puzzle. Researchers have identified a spectral signature still unexplained on Titan, Saturn's moon, and on Pluto, a distant and frozen dwarf planet. The signal appears around 5.11 micrometers in JWST data, the James Webb Space Telescope, and can... The post James Webb found in Titan and Pluto a strange brand that doesn't match any known compound appeared fi…
