Scientists say they are rethinking how the weather works after creating a 3D map of an exoplanet 900 light-years away and discovering a world with jet streams fueling wild storms.

"It feels like something out of science fiction," said European Southern Observatory astrophysicist Julia Victoria Seidel.

Researchers have peered into the atmosphere of planet WASP-121b and found its climate is stranger than anyone imagined.

Located 900 light-years away in the constellation Puppis, WASP-121b is an ultra-hot Jupiter, a gas giant orbiting its star so ...

The research has been published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature.
