First Science Snippets: Planetary Systems and the Origins of Life (2)

What are spectra and how are researchers using them to understand planets orbiting distant stars? Kaitlin Rasmussen from the University of Washington, Yoni Brande from the University of Kansas, and Brittany Miles from the University of Arizona explain some of the work highlighted in Session 7 of the First Science Results from JWST conference, held December 12-14, 2022, at the Space Telescope Science Institute in Baltimore, Maryland.
