NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and NASA’s Swift Satellite observe Stellar Flare make changes in Exoplanet’s Atmosphere

Greenbelt, MD – An international team of astronomers using data from NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has made an unparalleled observation, detecting significant changes in the atmosphere of a planet located beyond our solar system.
The scientists conclude the atmospheric variations occurred in response to a powerful eruption on the planet’s host star, an event observed by NASA’s Swift satellite.
