LTT 9779 b (Cuancoá) is the first ultra-hot Neptune discovered with an orbital period of 19 hours and an atmospheric temperature of over 1700 degrees Celsius. Being so close to its star and with a mass around twice that of Neptune, its atmosphere should have evaporated into space so its existence requires an unusual explanation. [8]
This is a list of the hottest exoplanets so far discovered, specifically those with temperatures greater than 2,500 K (2,230 °C; 4,040 °F) for exoplanets irradiated by a nearby star and greater than 2,000 K (1,730 °C; 3,140 °F) for self-luminous exoplanets.
Gliese 436 b / ˈ ɡ l iː z ə / (sometimes called GJ 436 b, [7] formally named Awohali [2]) is a Neptune-sized exoplanet orbiting the red dwarf Gliese 436. [1] It was the first hot Neptune discovered with certainty (in 2007) and was among the smallest-known transiting planets in mass and radius, until the much smaller Kepler exoplanet discoveries began circa 2010.
At the same time, hot weather is a killer: The EPA says there were 11,000 deaths in the U.S. directly caused by heat exposure between 1979 and 2018, and likely more where it was not listed or ...
A ground temperature of 84 °C (183 °F) was reportedly taken in Port Sudan, Sudan. [29] 22 January 2017: 57.2 °C (135.0 °F) Air Beverly Hills, California United States: According to the Los Angeles Almanac, 57.2 °C (135.0 °F) was the hottest temperature historically recorded among 20 Los Angeles County weather stations.
On Thursday, New Delhi nearly ranked among the world's top 10 when it topped out at 109 degrees (43 C), about 5 degrees shy of the all-time record high temperature for April there, which is 114.1 ...
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) confirmed the 130-degree temperature in 2020 as the hottest temperature ever reliably recorded. (At the very least, it will go down as the hottest ...
Neptune's more varied weather when compared to Uranus is due in part to its higher internal heating. The upper regions of Neptune's troposphere reach a low temperature of 51.8 K (−221.3 °C). At a depth where the atmospheric pressure equals 1 bar (100 kPa), the temperature is 72.00 K (−201.15 °C). [128]
