Scientists study various celestial bodies in space, especially planets that are suitable for life. One of them is HD189733b A planet called Jupiter, similar in size to Jupiter. This structure, located 64 light years away from Earth, does not seem to be a habitable place.

Surface temperature of HD 189733bIt exceeds 1900 degrees. Instead of rain, this temperature and the structure of the planet rain down glass fragments. In addition, according to research, there is a lot of hydrogen sulfide in the atmosphere of the planet. This combination is often seen in rotten eggs. Nevertheless, this structure can provide insight into the role that sulfur plays in gas giants.

Hydrogen sulfide found outside the solar system for the first time

The person leading the investigation Astrophysicist Guangwei Fu of Johns Hopkins University “Hydrogen sulfide is an important molecule that we didn’t know was there. We predicted it might be there, and we know it’s on Jupiter, but we haven’t detected it outside the solar system before.” he said.

From the James Webb Space Telescope The information we receive also gives us information about how planets formed. Sulfur plays an important role in the formation of more complex molecules. This planet, which is very close to its star, completes a single orbit in two Earth days.
