HD189733B: A hot Jupiter that rains molten glass

HD 189733 b is an exoplanet known as a hot Jupiter, located 64.5 light-years away. It has extreme weather, including winds reaching 8,700 km/h and silicate particles in its atmosphere that condense into molten glass rain, blown sideways by the fierce winds. Its deep blue color, once mistaken for an ocean reflection, is actually due to light scattering from its silicate-rich atmosphere.
