About

This visualization shows the temperature forecast spanning 130 exoplanet-days, across sunrise, noon, sunset and midnight for the exoplanet WASP-121 b. The brighter yellow regions depict areas in the day side of the exoplanet where temperatures soar well above 2,100 degrees Kelvin (3,320 degrees Fahrenheit); due to the close proximity to its host star.

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
