The planet "Hell" is even more extreme than scientists thought: 25,000 degrees Celsius, "iron rain"

Scientists believe that the extragamous planet WASP-76b is an example of an extreme climate planet. There should be iron rain here, and the temperature during the day is close to 25,000 degrees Celsius.

In a new study, scientists from Canada, Ireland and the United States analyzed new data on the planet obtained at the North Gemini Observatory in Hawaii and concluded that it was even weirder than expected.

WASP-76b orbits the yellow-and-white dwarf star WASP-76 in the constellation pisces, about 391 light-years from the Sun. The giant planet is so close to its star that it orbits it every 1.8 Earth days. This type of planet is known as a super-burning Jupiter. The star warmed WASP-76b so much that the metal evaporated on its surface.

Since the discovery of Earth in 2013, scientists have conducted some research on its atmosphere. First, there are sensational statements about wasp-76b extreme climates with "iron rain." Then, someone countered that incredible data on extreme temperatures and iron levels on exoplanets could be the result of measurement distortion.

The latest data from the Observatory shows that the Earth's atmosphere contains a large amount of electrolytic calcium. This means that there are very strong winds blowing in the upper atmosphere of the Earth, or that the atmospheric temperature of WASP-76b is even higher than expected.
