Fantastic work from Doriann Blain and Paul Mollière on the new and improved pRT3 for exoplanet atmosphere modeling - this code is a joy to use!

Check out this massive effort from Evert Nasedkin on the chemical composition of the HR 8799 planets. They're more metal-rich than planet formation models would predict - a puzzle!

So proud of Sebastian Zieba! you go Sebastian!!

Since a lot of Extreme Solar Systems V #ExSSV was dedicated towards showcasing new and exciting results from JWST, here's a summary thread to collect all (most) of the information in one place:

Y'all check out this beautiful necklace from Boutique Academia! It shows Earth-like exoplanets detected by the Kepler telescope (with input from Ethan Kruse and yours truly!). Great conversation starter to get folks interested in science.
