Supersonic Winds on Exoplanet WASP-127b Discovered

In a remarkable scientific breakthrough, astronomers have unveiled the fastest jet stream recorded on a planet to date, reaching speeds of up to 33,000 km/h (approximately 9 km/s). The study reveals that these winds travel around the equator of WASP-127b and are remarkably impactful on the planet’s weather patterns. The discovery sheds light on the dynamic atmosphere of WASP-127b and provides insights into the atmospheric processes occurring on distant exoplanets.
