For most planets, indeed.

It's very common for all exoplanets that we almost see.

There's a few out there that are just so, so hot.

They're mostly cloud-free, but those are kind of a tip-of-the-iceberg, extreme planets.

More or less, when we look at an exoplanet and look at a spectra, we see clouds.

And that's a similar characteristic as what we have in our solar system.

Every planet in our solar system with substantial atmosphere has clouds.

It is, and it's an important feature.

And as an astronomer, we typically hate clouds, but it's actually great to study them and actually learn about, you know, what nature provides.

Oh, thank you very much.
