There's a lot to unpack from the paper; the main takeaway is that we're starting to really see these objects in 3D! In the future, we want to really look at how the atmosphere itself evolves over time, rather than just looking at the rotational modulation - this would really be the weather!

With these retrievals, we were able to directly measure small changes in the temperature, chemistry, and clouds. While before we often thought that the variability would be due to looking at more- or less patchy regions of cloud coverage, now we find that it's more due to changes in the temperature!

🔭 It's paper day! Today I'm sharing the latest in a series of papers looking at the weather on other worlds, in this case bringing you the weather report from a nearby T-dwarf, SIMP-0136. 🪐

What's really cool about this system is that unlike most planets, we can actually take a picture of them! We used the NIRSpec and MIRI instruments on JWST to observe nearly the full spectra of each of these exoplanets.
