NASA’s Webb Lifts Veil on Common but Mysterious Type of Exoplanet https://science.nasa.gov/missions/webb/nasas-webb-lifts-veil-on-common-but-mysterious-type-of-exoplanet/ #Exoplanet #Exoplanets #AlienWorlds #AlienLife #Extraterrestrials #Space #Science #SolarSystem

Much smaller than gas-giants and typically cooler than hot Jupiters, sub-Neptunes were extremely challenging to observe before the launch of #JWST.

Though they appear to be the most common type of #exoplanet in our galaxy, you won’t find them in our solar system.

Astronomers are trying to understand how these planets formed and evolved, why they are so common, and why they don’t orbit our Sun.
