Der mithilfe des James Webb Space Telescope untersuchte Himmelskörper PSR J2322-2650b gehört zu den ungewöhnlichsten bislang beobachteten Exoplaneten. Er umkreist keinen normalen Stern, sondern einen Pulsar, also einen schnell rotierenden Neutronenstern, der als Überrest einer Supernova entstanden ist. Bereits diese Konstellation widerspricht klassischen Vorstellungen von stabilen Planetensystemen, da Pulsare als extrem strahlungsintensive und lebensfeindliche Umgebungen […]
