"Compared to the most recent Ice Age, glacier coverage was much more extensive and, more importantly, much of the ocean was frozen," Xiao said.
The researchers discovered this by looking at the excess ultraviolet radiation, which is seen as a line of hydrogen in Saturn’s atmosphere.
Scientists recommend finding a clear view of the western horizon and using binoculars to view the planets.
Exoplanet VHS 1256 b is a gas giant 40 light years away from Earth that orbits a binary star system. Its constant shifts in brightness with its clouds make it the most volatile world ever seen.
The water probably would have originated from volcanic activity and gradually evaporated into the atmosphere, along with other vital compounds.
Tidally locked worlds have one side always day and another always night. Life should be impossible here, but a strip in the middle could support life.
“Despite many astronomers having wished for this extra planet, it’s a good thing we don’t have it,” said lead author Stephen Kane.
The existence of the exoplanet gas giant TOI-5205b around a small red dwarf star should be completely impossible, challenging previously-held theories.
The new theory has saved countless hours of research and significant material resources.
The discovery of this hidden molten rock layer shows that molten rocks have nothing to do with tectonic plate movements, which cause earthquakes.
