This suggests that instead of a Neptune-like exoplanet, that GJ 1214 b is more of a super-Venus exoplanet, which is astounding since its orbital period is only 1.6 days, whereas the orbital period of ...

Webb tracked the full orbit of GJ 1214 b, allowing scientists to create a “heat map." This map showed a big change in temperature between the mini-Neptune’s day and night sides — only ...

Enaiposha, also known as GJ 1214 b, is an exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf Orkaria, located just 48 light-years from the Solar System. It was discovered in 2009 and was one of the first exoplanets ...

Possible Carbon Dioxide above the Thick Aerosols of GJ 1214 b Journal: The Astrophysical Journal Letters Published: 2024-10-16 DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ad7fef Affiliations: 15 Authors: 17 Go to article ...

Though TOI-421 b and GJ 1214 b are both sub-Neptunes, they vary in temperature: TOI-421 b is a toasty 1,340 degrees Fahrenheit, while GJ 1214 b is a relatively cool 370 degrees Fahrenheit.

What is GJ 1214 b’s composition? In results published in The Astrophysical Journal Letters in October and January, the researchers say GJ 1214 b appears likely to be a carbon dioxide-heavy ...

GJ 1214 b is part of a family of planets that are also called mini-Neptunes. That's because they have a rocky composition, possibly oceans above that, and an atmosphere rich in hydrogen.

Located 50 light-years away, the planet GJ 1214 b has defied 15 years of attempted observations due to its hazy nature.

What secrets do you hold, planet GJ 1214 b? NASA turned the powerful James Webb Space Telescope to a world 48 light-years away, a type of planet called a "mini-Neptune" that's bigger than Earth ...

New Insights into the Internal Structure of GJ 1214 b Informed by JWST Journal: The Astrophysical Journal Letters Published: 2024-07-24 DOI: 10.3847/2041-8213/ad615b Affiliations: 5 Authors: 10 Go ...

But since GJ 1214 b is thought to be much bigger than Venus, this would make it unlike any other planet. Astronomers are therefore referring to this new world as a ‘super-Venus,’ making the ...
