As a result of being so close to the star, temperature extremes on the day and night side of WASP-127 b drive the strongest winds detected so far on any planet, either in our solar system or beyond it. This artist’s visualisation of WASP-127...
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In Earth's upper atmosphere, a fast-moving band of air called the jet stream blows with winds of more than 275 miles (442 km) per hour, but they are not the strongest in our solar system. The comparable high-altitude winds on Neptune reach about 1,200 ...

The Great Dark Spot in the southern atmosphere of Neptune was first discovered in 1989 by the Voyager 2 spacecraft. It was an incredibly large rotating storm system with winds of up to 1,500 miles per hour, the strongest winds recorded on any planet. How such powerful winds were discovered...
The best months to spot a celestial performance are near the spring and fall equinoxes (March and September) when solar winds tend to be strongest. In summer, the Arctic's midnight sun will thwart your efforts. Check the local weather Spotting northern lights also calls for clear skies and ...
