The coldest known exoplanet experiences temperatures as low as minus 223\u00b0C, with the hottest topping 4,000\u00b0C. <\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-6-WXH7S77KSZF3TGUXI2ECXWCYSM\">While Wasp-18b itself is unsuitable for life, Dr Blecic, who is part of NYU Abu Dhabi\u2019s Centre for Astrophysics and Space Science, said analysis of exoplanets could indicate which ones may be home to life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-8-7DMJX5EVOZB3VEMQYM4HQM4NB4\">\u201cWhat motivates us when we study exoplanets is to answer the question, \u2018Are we alone? Are there habitable planets out there?\u2019\u201d Dr Blecic told The National.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-9-Z4EI2DMPHJBPDJSYRQFCRAFOMA\">To help find answers, the first thing that scientists must understand, Dr Blecic said, is the temperature of the planet. \u201cWe expect the habitable planets that host life will have temperatures similar to what we have on Earth, which allow water to be liquid,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p><b>Too hot to handle<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-11-WXULT3LUNVD4LJFSVYDJEDPILM\">Although some other exoplanets may be habitable, Wasp-18b unquestionably is not: it is far too hot to have liquid water and it is purely gaseous. \u201cIt is not just that the temperatures are not appropriate for life to evolve in the form that we know it. The planet also should have a solid surface to be habitable,\u201d Dr Blecic said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-12-A6BM5W7CCBG4PJ3CYU4NSNK3W4\">Indeed, while there is some water vapour in the planet\u2019s atmosphere, the temperatures are so extreme that most water molecules have been split into their chemical components, namely ions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-13-G44LDZAGOBDX3KTAZI6TRW5CU4\">Dr Blecic and her co-researchers believe these charged particles move between north and south in the planet\u2019s atmosphere, a consequence of Wasp-18b having a very strong magnetic field.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-14-ECOLFT6EQVHKHC7HC2TLYFXS7Y\">Wasp-18b\u2019s temperatures are so high because it orbits its star 20 times closer than Mercury orbits the sun, forcing the planet to be, like our moon, tidally locked. This means a full rotation and a full orbit take the same length of time, so the same side always faces the larger planet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-15-4GBDQ7PEDRD3TCP5POTK7L3LZM\">Some areas of Wasp-18b are as much as 2,000\u00b0C cooler than others, with the variation depending on how much exposure to the star that part of the planet receives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-17-O657ATUWNBFAZPUQWV72RYCOOY\">Producing a three-dimensional temperature map of an exoplanet is important because, Dr Blecic said, the temperature heavily dictates what conditions on the planet are like, in terms of both the climate and the atmosphere\u2019s chemical composition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-18-RANWFNVZLFBZXAQALILMBGZZEI\">The map was created from data from Nasa\u2019s James Webb Space Telescope by a technique called 3D eclipse mapping, which involves measuring light changes associated with different parts of the atmosphere as a planet moves behind its star.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-19-RIOO4Y6IVVEUNPG753KJGLMBIA\">Analysing these variations in wavelengths allowed researchers to create a map showing how temperature varies with latitude, longitude and altitude.<\/p>\n<p><b>Unravelling mysteries of the universe<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-21-SLMJKMGMRJGAZBUD45ME7ZGLPU\">There are thousands of known exoplanets and the researchers say their 3D mapping model could be applied to many of them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-22-J2EEO4BWURG37FRCDLXAZAAPSA\">Scientists have been observing Wasp-18b since 2009, but the quality of the data from the James Webb Space Telescope far exceeds that from previous analysis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-23-PABWALA6BZGGBOHWXTAOXPU3GM\">More than two years ago, again using data from the James Webb Space Telescope, Dr Blecic and her co-researchers revealed that they had found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenationalnews.com\/uae\/2023\/06\/27\/abud-dhabi-scientist-detects-water-on-planet-400-light-years-away\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.thenationalnews.com\/uae\/2023\/06\/27\/abud-dhabi-scientist-detects-water-on-planet-400-light-years-away\/\">water on Wasp-18b<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-24-XY6TJUOY3VCVDLLAKZJ7JSGNXY\">This indicated to the scientists that they would also be able to detect water on other exoplanets, including some that might be habitable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-25-WVY5ZYQRVBD5XCSU53F555UFWA\">Despite being gaseous, Wasp-18b is very dense, with a mass that is about 3,000 times of Earth, even though its radius (the distance from the centre to the surface) is only about 10 times that of Earth. It is one of the densest planets that Dr Blecic and her colleagues have analysed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-26-JL7I4BQDMBCT7O6MJDSAMFML4Y\">Although the distance from Wasp-18b to Earth, at about 400 light years, is difficult to comprehend, given that light travels at just under 300,000km per second, it is tiny in relation to the universe as a whole.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-27-ZC4R4QV3JJAG7JWG4V4ZZH2P6U\">Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is about 100,000 light years across, while the observable universe stretches to about 94 billion light years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"defaultstyled__StyledText-sc-11u52t4-1 huqwQJ margin-lg-bottom\" id=\"el-28-2BJ3WDQGVNGHHJONQFHH6YXPOE\">As well as Wasp-18b, Dr Blecic has previously published findings on a planet called <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenationalnews.com\/world\/2022\/08\/27\/uae-researcher-helps-show-that-planet-700-light-years-away-has-co2-in-its-atmosphere\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.thenationalnews.com\/world\/2022\/08\/27\/uae-researcher-helps-show-that-planet-700-light-years-away-has-co2-in-its-atmosphere\/\">Wasp-39b<\/a>, which is around 700 light years away and is notable for being the first exoplanet where carbon dioxide has been detected in the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<p>MADAME%20WEB<\/p>\n<p>%3Cp%3EDirector%3A%20S.J.%20Clarkson%3C%2Fp%3E%0A%3Cp%3EStarring%3A%20Dakota%20Johnson%2C%20Tahar%20Rahim%2C%20Sydney%20Sweeney%3C%2Fp%3E%0A%3Cp%3ERating%3A%203.5%2F5%3C%2Fp%3E%0A<\/p>\n<p>BMW M5 specs<\/p>\n<p><strong>Engine: <\/strong>4.4-litre twin-turbo V-8 petrol enging with additional electric motor<\/p>\n<p><strong>Power:<\/strong> 727hp<\/p>\n<p><strong>Torque: <\/strong>1,000Nm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Transmission: <\/strong>8-speed auto<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fuel consumption:<\/strong> 10.6L\/100km<\/p>\n<p><strong>On sale: <\/strong>Now<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price:<\/strong> From Dh650,000<\/p>\n<p>Specs <\/p>\n<p><strong>Engine:<\/strong> 51.5kW electric motor<\/p>\n<p><strong>Range: <\/strong>400km<\/p>\n<p><strong>Power:<\/strong> 134bhp<\/p>\n<p><strong>Torque:<\/strong> 175Nm<\/p>\n<p><strong>Price: <\/strong>From Dh98,800<\/p>\n<p><strong>Available: <\/strong>Now<\/p>\n<p>Wicked: For Good<\/p>\n<p><strong>Director:<\/strong> Jon M Chu<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starring:<\/strong> Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh, Ethan Slater<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> 4\/5<\/p>\n<p>Recipe: Spirulina Coconut Brothie<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients <\/strong><br \/>1 tbsp Spirulina powder<br \/>1 banana<br \/>1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (full fat preferable)<br \/>1 tbsp fresh turmeric or turmeric powder<br \/>\u00bd cup fresh spinach leaves<br \/>\u00bd cup vegan broth<br \/>2 crushed ice cubes (optional)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Method <\/strong><br \/>Blend all the ingredients together on high in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>MATCH INFO<\/p>\n<p><strong>Newcastle United 2<\/strong> (Willems\u00a025&#8242;, Shelvey 88&#8242;)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Manchester City 2<\/strong> (Sterling 22&#8242;, De Bruyne\u00a082&#8242;)<\/p>\n<p>The five pillars of Islam<\/p>\n<p>Globalization and its Discontents Revisited<br \/>Joseph E.

Investors can\u00a0buy ETFs directly via a brokerage, but with robo-advisers they benefit from investment portfolios matched to their risk tolerance as well as being user friendly.<\/p>\n<p>Many robo-advisers charge what are called wrap fees, meaning there are no additional fees such as subscription or withdrawal fees, success fees or fees for rebalancing.<\/p>\n<p>Company profile<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Name:<\/strong>\u00a0Back to Games and Boardgame Space<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Started:<\/strong>\u00a0Back to Games (2015); Boardgame Space (Mark Azzam became\u00a0co-founder in 2017)<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Founder:<\/strong>\u00a0Back to Games (Mr\u00a0Azzam);\u00a0Boardgame Space (Mr Azzam\u00a0and Feras Al Bastaki)<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Based:<\/strong>\u00a0Dubai and Abu Dhabi\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\">Industry:\u00a0Back to Games (retail); Boardgame Space (wholesale\u00a0and distribution)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Funding:<\/strong>\u00a0Back to Games: self-funded by Mr Azzam with Dh1.3 million; Mr Azzam invested Dh250,000 in Boardgame Space\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p data-atex-pstyle=\"*Sans Copy Styles:FB Sans Cond\"><strong>Growth:<\/strong>\u00a0Back to Games: from 300 products in 2015 to 7,000 in 2019; Boardgame Space: from 34 games in 2017 to 3,500 in 2019<\/p>\n<p>ONCE UPON A TIME IN GAZA<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starring:<\/strong> Nader Abd Alhay, Majd Eid, Ramzi Maqdisi<\/p>\n<p><strong>Directors:<\/strong> Tarzan and Arab Nasser<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> 4.5\/5<\/p>\n<p>Living in&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>This article is part of a guide on where to live in the UAE.
