Since the summer months of 2022, sightings have been actively continuing. James Webb Space Telescopecame out with a big discovery announcement today. NASA has announced that James Webb has made the first discovery of an exoplanet.

The exoplanet, dubbed LHS 475 b, is almost exactly the same size as Earth, according to shared details. In addition, the planet 41 light years awaythat is, if we look at space, it is in a place that can be considered too close.

Information about the new exoplanet is quite limited.

The work, led by Kevin Stevenson and Jacob Lusitg-Yaeger of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, also provided the first information about the planet. The James Webb Space Telescope team Near infrared spectrograph (NIRSpec) studied the structure of the planet.

Sharing that the planet is rocky, not a gas giant, the team said: of the atmosphere indicated that it may not be available. Because NASA stated that the spectrum in the chart above is similar to the spectrum of planets that have no atmosphere.

Of course, the information obtained was not limited to this. From the planet Earth several hundred degrees warmer was also stated. It was also claimed that the planet is much closer to its star than similarly sized planets (Earth, Venus) in the solar system.
