New observational data from the James Webb Space Telescope and simulation models have confirmed a new type of planet unlike anything found in the solar system. This provides another piece of the puzzle describing how planets and planetary systems form.

Skywatchers, get ready for an unforgettable weeks-long celestial spectacle. This rare phenomenon, nicknamed the "Parade of Planets," offers a unique opportunity for viewers to observe multiple planets in the night sky.
