"First-Ever Observation of Mysterious Rainbow-like 'Glory Lights' on Exoplanet"

Astronomers have observed the rainbow-like 'glory' effect on a planet outside our solar system for the first time, offering new insights into the potential habitability of distant planets. The phenomenon, seen on a planet called WASP-76b, is caused by concentric rings of light reflecting off clouds made of a uniform substance. This discovery, made using the European Space Agency's Characterizing Exoplanet Satellite, could provide a unique tool for understanding the atmospheres of exoplanets and their potential habitability.
