TOI 5205b is called a 'forbidden planet' as it defies current astronomical theories about planetary formation.

The JWST discovers an impossible anomaly on TOI-5205 b and challenges everything we thought we knew about giant planets.

Three years ago, Carnegie University astronomers examining a small star called a red dwarf found something unexpected: a ...

It only takes one close encounter with a lightning strike to get the full sense of its power. At around 1 gigaJoule of energy, a single electrical discharge during a thunderstorm is more than enough ...
