Webb space telescope reveals a scorching “super-Earth” that looks like Mercury

The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed a scorching super-Earth called LHS 3844 b, located 48 light-years away, which is a dark, barren rock with no atmosphere and a permanent dayside hot enough to melt metal. This discovery provides scientists with a rare glimpse into the geology of distant planets. The planet's unique characteristics make it an interesting subject for further study.
