The exoplanet HD 189733b, located 64 light-years away, exhibits extreme weather conditions including supersonic winds exceeding 7,000 km/h and a unique 'glass rain' phenomenon where silicate aerosols condense into tiny glass particles that are horizontally blown across the planet's bluish atmosphere, demonstrating how exoplanets can have meteorological conditions far more extreme than anything observed in our Solar System.

Chuva de vidro e ventos supersônicos: o clima extremo do exoplaneta HD 189733bAdded:
Hold your breath now, because on the exoplanet HD 18973B, a hot Jupiter about 64 light-years away, supersonic bursts exceeding 7,000 to 1,000 km/h sweep across a bluish atmosphere rich in silicate aerosols, where the condensation of tiny grains forms a horizontally blown glass rain, a meteorological inferno deduced by spectroscopy and Doppler measurements, revealing the silicate signature and subtle changes in brightness during the transit, proving that on certain worlds the climate acts like cosmic sandpaper. capable of blasting away anything that dares to cross the sky.
