Exoplanet atmosphere analysis with instruments like JWST is giving us unprecedented insights into the conditions on distant worlds. We're starting to characterize atmospheric compositions in detail.

What exoplanet atmosphere analysis results have been most intriguing? I'm particularly interested in the detection of specific molecules and the temperature profiles we're able to measure. The search for biosignatures is obviously exciting, but even the basic atmospheric characterization is revealing so much about planetary formation and evolution.
