JWST Reveals Reflective Atmosphere on Ultra-Short-Period Lava World

Researchers using the James Webb Space Telescope examined the ultra-short-period exoplanet TOI-561 b and found evidence of a significant atmosphere containing reflective clouds of compounds like silicon dioxide. Orbiting its star in just 10.5 hours, the rocky super-Earth was previously expected to have lost any volatile envelope due to intense stellar radiation. Full-orbit phase curve observations indicate that roughly three-quarters of incoming stellar heat is reflected into space rather than accumulating on the nightside, challenging current theories of how heavily irradiated rocky exoplanets evolve and retain atmospheres over billions of years.
