An artist's impression of a cold gas giant orbiting a red dwarf has been captured by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The telescope has revealed one of the oldest and coldest-known exoplanets by directly imaging its host star, Epsilon Indi A, located just 12 light-years away from our solar system.
This discovery marks the first time JWST has imaged an exoplanet that had not previously been observed using ground-based telescopes. The exoplanet, named Epsilon Indi Ab, is classified as a 'super Jupiter' due to its mass, which is more than six times that of Jupiter.
