NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope has captured its first direct image of an exoplanet

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has directly imaged an exoplanet for the first time. The planet, TWA 7 b, is about the mass of Saturn and located 100 light years from Earth. Using a special attachment to mimic a solar eclipse, researchers captured images of the planet, which appears as a bright light source with a debris ring. This breakthrough allows scientists to observe smaller exoplanets that were previously undetectable due to star light interference.
