How Webb Discovered a Planet that Glows in the Dark: The Story of WASP-80 b

In this episode, I will explain how the James Webb Space Telescope observed WASP-80 b, a hot Jupiter-like exoplanet that orbits a cool, low-mass star about 200 light-years away from Earth. I will show you how Webb detected water vapor, methane, and carbon dioxide in the planet’s atmosphere, and how it measured the planet’s temperature and albedo. I will also discuss the significance and implications of this discovery for our understanding of exoplanet diversity and habitability. Don’t miss this amazing episode on Webb’s first exoplanet discovery!
