When the New Horizons spacecraft flew past Pluto, it revealed features on its surface for the first time. But it also directly measured the atmosphere of Pluto and detected particles like nitrogen, methane, and carbon monoxide. New observations from Webb have revealed how these hazy particles control the energy balance of Pluto's atmosphere, rising and falling as they're heated and cooled. This phenomenon makes it very different from other worlds.
