This artistтАЩs impression shows exoplanet HD 189733b as it passes in front of its parent star, called HD 189733A. HubbleтАЩs instruments observed the system in 2010 and in 2011 following a large flare from the star (depicted in the image). Following the flare, Hubble observed the planetтАЩs atmosphere evaporating at a rate of over 1,000 tons per second. ...
