The Hubble space telescope has recently detected water in the atmospheres of five distant planets. The planets are all massive Jupiter-sized bodies that orbit close to their host stars. But their extremely high temperature means that the chances of life, or at least life as we know it, is low.
However this research does open a whole number of doors into our investigation of different atmospheres of various exoplanets beyond our solar system, and ones that could potentially . The compositions of the atmosphere can be determined by the wavelengths of light that the host star transmits and the wavelengths that are partially absorbed. This study also revealed a layer of haze or dust around the planets.
