What new exoplanet discoveries has JWST made recently?

JWST recently found some new exoplanets that are like neighbors in a faraway galaxy.

Imagine you're playing hide-and-seek in a big park, but instead of hiding behind trees, the players are planets hiding around stars. JWST is like a super-smart detective who can spot these hidden planets even though they’re very small and far away.

JWST discovered some new exoplanets that are in the "Goldilocks zone", a special place where it's just right for life, kind of like how you find the perfect blanket when you're sleepy. These planets are a bit like Earth’s cousins; they might have liquid water and maybe even life one day.

One of the coolest discoveries is a planet that changes color as it goes around its star, like how your face gets red when you run outside on a chilly day. This happens because the planet has different gases in its atmosphere, which JWST can see like a colorful painting.
