Astronomers Name ‘Super Venus’ Close to Solar System — What To Know
A team of astronomers from Japan and Arizona has discovered a unique exoplanet unlike any in our solar system, just 48 light-years away. Dubbed “Enaiposha,” the exoplanet is not only close enough to be studied further but also presents an intriguing case study for planetary formation theories.
The newly named “Super Venus” (or Enaiposha/GJ 1214 b) orbits its star within the constellation Ophiuchus, a vast summer sky feature that is often overlooked in favor of more well-known constellations. The discovery of this exoplanet sheds new light on our understanding of planetary atmospheres and how they form.
For years, astronomers have been studying Enaiposha, but it wasn’t until the James Webb Space Telescope was launched that we could gather conclusive data about its atmosphere. By using its Mid-Infrared Instrument, JWST has enabled scientists to analyze the exoplanet’s composition in a way not previously possible.
Enaiposha is unlike any other exoplanet discovered so far due to its remarkable properties and potential for further study.
