New James Webb Space Telescope data reveal Pluto's high-altitude haze is a key driver of the climate on the dwarf planet, ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have peered into a mysterious, blue haze cloaking the surface of Pluto — and ...

In the study titled, Evidence of haze control of Pluto's atmospheric heat balance from JWST/MIRI thermal light curves, astronomers revealed that they detected and measured the thermal emission of ...

New data captured by the James Webb Space Telescope has finally given astronomers new clues about how Pluto cools itself.

JWST confirms Pluto’s haze cools its mesosphere and drives methane escape, coating Charon’s poles red. The haze absorbs UV light, heats the upper atmosphere, and re-radiates heat as infrared.

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered that a hazy sky over frozen Pluto is helping to cool the dwarf planet's ...

The first observations of Pluto by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) reveal dramatic phenomena on its surface, like ...
