The temperature of the planets is enough to melt even **titanium.** Scientists during their research of that Exoplanets, working with NASA on a project of the **[Hubble Telescope](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1615/hubble-telescope-captured-some-iconic-images-of-dust-filled-by-galaxies)** reported **WASP-178b,** an exoplanet 1300 light-years away. NASA’s iconic Telescope**[‘Hubble](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1208/galaxies-collision-wonderful-shots-clicked-by-nasa-s-hubble)’** has revealed information about the Exoplanets like it told that planet WASP-178b is always in a position so that it faces the burning star from one side. It was also observed on the planet that during daytime the atmosphere of the Planet is filled with Silicon **Monoxide gas.** The gas works to cool an object coming from the skies but at the time of dusk and dawn, the rock is used to vaporise due to the hot temperature. The study report of researchers was posted in **Nature Journal.** A co-author of the study conducted for the Exoplanets says “When You look at Earth, all our weather [predictions](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/story/1779/7-of-the-weirdest-predictions-for-the-end-of-the-world) are still finely tuned to what we can measure. But when you go to a distant Exoplanets, have limited predictive powers because you haven’t built a general theory about how everything in an atmosphere goes together and responds to extreme conditions,” said **David Sing** working at [Johns Hopkins](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/43913/how-can-i-apply-to-johns-hopkins-university) University in Baltimore Maryland. A reporter also said about the Exoplanets “The emission spectrum for KELT-20b is quite different from other hot **Jupiter.** This is compelling evidence that planets don’t live in isolation but are affected by their host star,” said **Guangwei Fu** of the University of Maryland. **Also Read: [NASA scientist Vande Hei's return to earth after 355 days mission in space](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1518/nasa-scientist-vande-hei-s-return-to-earth-after-355-days-mission-in-space)** --- Original Source: https://www.mindstick.com/news/1553/nasa-s-hubble-reveals-the-temperature-of-exoplanets-are-melting-rocks Copyright © MindStick Software Pvt.
