Weather forecast for Neptune: After sunny weather for the past few Earth years, we’ll see increasingly more clouds over the next few years. In 1989, NASA’s Voyager 2 spacecraft provided the first ...
But Webb's observations didn't just provide new pretty pictures of the ice giant planet's greenish-blue splotches. It revealed how odd Neptune's auroras are compared to other planets', glowing over ...

There aren't a lot of Hot Neptunes in the galaxy, and it's not entirely clear why. A Hot Neptune is, as the name implies, a Neptune-sized planet orbiting within 1 AU of its host star. While we've ...
Of all the potential super-Earths—terrestrial exoplanets more massive than Earth—out there, an exoplanet orbiting a star only 40 light-years away from us in the constellation Cetus might be the most ...
