Astronomers Uncover Secrets of a Giant Planet Orbiting a Dead Star

Recent observations have shed light on the unusual survival of WD 1856 b, a Jupiter-sized exoplanet orbiting a white dwarf star. Located 80 light-years away, this planet completes an orbit every 34 hours, much closer to its star than Earth is to the Sun. The findings may provide insights into the future of our solar system's gas giants, like Jupiter and Saturn, when the Sun eventually dies in about 5 billion years. Researchers utilized the James Webb Space Telescope to gather data on WD 1856 b's atmosphere, revealing unexpected characteristics and suggesting that massive planets can endure the violent death of their host stars in ways previously thought impossible.

The Pope's actions, including laying a wreath at migrant graves and meeting with survivors, aim to send a strong message to U.S. leaders regarding the treatment of immigrants, which he has criticized as inhumane.
