How can you determine how a giant planet formed? @ETH_physics and @NCCRPlanetS members @C_Patapis and @adiglauser are part of a team that proposes #ammonia to be a possible answer, based on #JWST observations of #exoplanets atmospheres they carried. More:

A team led by @NCCRPlanetS members from @unibern and involving @uarizona is the first to solve the mystery of the heart-shaped structure discovered at the surface of #Pluto by @NASA #NewHorizons mission. More info:

An astronomer team led by @NCCRPlanetS members from @UNIGEnews found out it would only take a few degrees on Earth to trigger a runaway #greenhouse effect. This would turn our planet full of life into a hellish place like #Venus. More on our website:

Today marks @ESA_CHEOPS launch 4th anniversary! Approx. 20000 orbits later, the @esa and Switzerland #satellite built under the leadership of @unibern @UNIGEnews, still looks for #exoplanets. The mission was extended earlier this year!

The @obsge people involved in this discovery are members of our very own @NCCRPlanetS ! 🥳 The recently created Life in the Universe research Center (LUC) is also at the origin of this research project!
A team from @unige_and @CNRS has simulated the entire runaway #greenhouse effect, which can make a #planet completely unhabitable. On #Earth, a global average temperature rise of just a few tens of degrees would be sufficient to initiate this phenomenon.

Our people from @unibern and @unige_en have play a major role in this discovery which will be key for the future of exoplanet studies!
1/ A rare star system with 6 #exoplanets has been unlocked with the help of our @ESA_Cheops mission A special discovery because the planets’ orbital configuration shows that the system is largely unchanged since formation more than a billion years ago 👉
