Summary:
- The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered a bizarre exoplanet called WASP-121b, which is located 900 light-years from Earth.
- WASP-121b is a "hot Jupiter" - a gas giant planet that orbits extremely close to its host star, causing it to be superheated to over 4,000°C (7,200°F).
- The planet's atmosphere is being stripped away by the intense radiation from its star, creating auroras that can be seen from space, making it a unique and fascinating object for astronomers to study.
