Clouds blanket the night side of the hot exoplanet WASP-43b | Max-Planck-Gesellschaft https://www.mpg.de/21875918/0424-astr-jwst-wasp43b-clouds-150980-x
The James Webb Space Telescope created a temperature map of the exoplanet WASP-43b. The nearby parent star causes temperatures on the day side to rise to a blazing 1250 degrees Celsius. Meanwhile, eternal night reigns on the other side. Fierce winds blow the scorching hot air to the night side, where it cools to 600 degrees Celsius, forming clouds and covering the entire hemisphere. These storms affect the chemical reactions so much that hardly any methane can form.
