The Universe Is Getting Stranger!



TODAY in the world of Science! Scientists Have Discovered a 'Puffy' Exoplanet With The Density of Styrofoam



Astronomers have found a giant exoplanet larger than Jupiter, but with extremely low mass - a composition that gives this mysterious 'puffy planet' a density very similar to styrofoam.



The team who found KELT-11b, which orbits a star located about 320 light-years from Earth, says this "extraordinarily inflated" world is the third-lowest density planet with a precisely measured mass and radius that has been discovered – and this oddball, lightweight sphere could tell us more about how such strange exoplanets evolve.

That's an amazing find. I would like to know more about how scientists think it was formed, and why it remains in orbit with such a low mass.

It might be a great place for a golf course. I will try to watch for any follow up news.
