3D map of exoplanet atmosphere shows wacky climate
Last year, astronomers discovered an unusual Earth-size exoplanet they believe has a hemisphere of molten lava, with its other hemisphere tidally locked in perpetual darkness. And at about the same time, a different group discovered of a rare small, cold exoplanet with a massive outer companion 100 times the mass of Jupiter.
