Sterrenkundigen van het W.M. Keck Observatorium op Mauna Kea (Hawaï) hebben in de atmosfeer van de exoplaneet HR 8799c water gedetecteerd. De waarnemingen deden ze met de NIRSPEC (near-infrared cryogenic echelle spectrograph), een hoge resolutie spectrometer, die verbonden is aan de 8m Keck II telescoop op Hawaï. HR 8799c is één van de vier…

Water Vapor Detected in Exoplanet’s Atmosphere
Water Vapor Detected in Exoplanet’s Atmosphere
Life as we know it requires liquid water, which is why those studying exoplanets search for traces of H2O in the atmospheres. A team of astronomers, led by first author Alexandra Lockwood from Caltech, have detected water vapor on one of the alien planets nearest to Earth. The results were based on data obtained using the Near Infrared Echelle Spectograph (NIRSPEC) at the Keck Observatory in…
