Indonesia’s largest city Jakarta sinking faster than Venice: Study

Nearly 40% of Jakarta already lies below sea level, with rising seas worsening flood risks by 2030.

JWST spots hot Jupiter exoplanet leaking twin gas tails
The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered an exoplanet, 'ultrahot Jupiter' WASP-121b, or Tylos, leaking two vast helium tails. Located 858 light-years away, the planet orbits its star every 30 hours. Extreme radiation heats its atmosphere to about 2,300°C, causing lightweight gases like hydrogen and helium to escape the planet, flowing into space, creating these tails.
