Space fans, rejoice! The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered something absolutely amazing – a star-planet hybrid with very strange clouds. This bizarre world, called VHS 1256 b, is actually a brown dwarf. Those are bigger than planets but too small to classify as stars. They emit some light of their own and are quite hot. Is the new discovery dangerous for us? #brightside Credit: brown dwarf: By NASA/JPL-Caltech, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=24187352 JWST: By NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13758 JWST 2: By NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/13755 JWST 3: By NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/12909 Exoplanet: By NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center/S.
