Exometeorology information


Artist's concept of Gliese 1214 b showing thick, orange clouds covering the planet's surface as its yellow star shines past its horizon (from the picture's perspective). Because there are such a wide variety of exoplanets, air and cloud colors, compositions, densities, and circulation patterns can vary greatly from exoplanet to exoplanet.

Exometeorology is the study of atmospheric conditions of exoplanets and other non-stellar celestial bodies outside the Solar System, such as brown dwarfs.[1][2] The diversity of possible sizes, compositions, and temperatures for exoplanets (and brown dwarfs) leads to a similar diversity of theorized atmospheric conditions. However, exoplanet detection technology has only recently[when?] developed enough to allow direct observation of exoplanet atmospheres, so there is currently very little observational data about meteorological variations in those atmospheres.
