Astronomers have recently unlocked a new frontier in exoplanet exploration, generating the first 3D map of a distant world.

Using JWST, scientists mapped WASP-18b’s atmosphere in 3D, revealing blazing regions where water molecules split apart.

The gas giant WASP-18b belongs to a class known as ultra-hot Jupiters — giant, searing, gaseous planets that orbit perilously close to their stars. Researchers used a new technique called ...
