Excited to share our discovery! 🔭We observed extremely powerful winds pummeling the equator of the exoplanet WASP-127b. I’m proud to be part of the VLT/CRIRES+ consortium! @MPSGoettingen @SPP_exoplanets
ESO@ESO

Using ESO's #VLT, astronomers have discovered extremely powerful winds on #exoplanet WASP-127b. The winds reach speeds up to 33 000 km/h, the fastest jetstream of its kind ever measured on a planet! Discover more: eso.org/public/news/es… Artist's impression by ESO/L. Calçada

Together with #Huygens, hardware from #MPSGoettingen made its way to the surface of #Titan. We contributed the CCD detector and associated operation electronics to the instrument #DISR – and thus helped to take the first and to date only pictures from the surface of an icy moon.

On 14 January 2005, ESA’s #Huygens probe made history as it touched down on Titan, Saturn’s largest moon. This was humanity's first successful landing on a world in the outer Solar System. Relive those moments with this narrated video done with Huygens data youtube.com/watch?v=svmGxF… 1/3

All scientific instruments to which #MPSGoettingen has contributed i.e. #BELA, #MIXS, #SERENA and #MPPE are switched on during flyby and we’re looking forward to cool new data. #bepicolombo #Mercury #Flyby

Here's an image taken 5.5 hours before closest approach, when #bepicolombo was 44950 km from Mercury's southern hemisphere. The planet is at the bottom of the picture, below two of the spacecraft's booms.
