Looking through the telescope, startled to discover "hellish" super Earth

The James Webb Space Telescope has just revealed a "hellish" super Earth with bubbling toxic gases and the ability of volcanic eruptions to create magma oceans in the middle of the universe.

Thanks to the James Webb telescope, scientists have confirmed that this planet has an extremely toxic atmosphere. (Photo: Science Photo Gallery)

The sky of L 98-59 d is filled with sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide – dangerous gases that cannot support life. (Photo: NASA Science)

This is the smallest super-Earth whose atmosphere has ever been observed, and also one of the most extreme planets ever recorded. (Photo: ESO.org)

The planet's surface may be molten, with violent volcanic eruptions creating magma oceans deep beneath the crust. (Photo: The Conversation)

Computer models show that “tidal heating” caused by the gravitational pull of the parent star is heating the planet’s core. (Photo: Astrobiology Web)

The stark contrast with Earth, Venus, and Mars suggests that L 98-59 d has a very unique planetary evolution. (Photo: exoplanetkyoto.org)

Although not potentially habitable, L 98-59 d is a valuable clue to better understanding the diversity of worlds beyond our solar system. (Image: Stellar Catalog)
