This planet smells like rotten eggs orbits its sun in 2 days JWST finds

There are thousands, millions of such planets outside our solar system, about which scientists are gradually gathering information. Scientists have discovered a planet that smells like rotten eggs. Johns Hopkins University Scientists have discovered this quality of the planet. The name of the planet is HD 189733 b. Hydrogen sulphide is present in its atmosphere. This is the compound that causes the foul smell of rotten eggs. The scientists’ findings have been published in Nature magazine. Some more information has also been found about this planet.

HD 189733 b has been of interest to scientists for a long time. It is at a distance of 64 light years from the Earth and is known for its extreme weather conditions. It revolves around its star very closely. It completes one revolution around its star in just two Earth days.

Due to being so close to its star, the planet’s temperature reaches 1,700 degrees Fahrenheit and winds blow at a speed of 5 thousand miles per hour and it rains glass. This is why it is an inaccessible world.

With the help of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the largest observatory deployed in space, scientists got more information about this planet. With the help of data obtained from the web, scientists detected hydrogen sulphide on the planet. They also discovered sources of oxygen and carbon on the planet.

Scientists also found levels of heavy metals on this planet, which are as heavy as Jupiter. According to reports, it is impossible for life to thrive on HD 189733 b because it is too hot. Despite this, the presence of hydrogen sulphide on the planet may be very important for research in the future.
