Patrick Simmons+FollowPlanet Fluffier Than Cotton Candy?Astronomers just found a planet so puffy it’s basically a cosmic marshmallow—and it’s orbiting its star the wrong way! Meet TOI-4507 b: a gas giant with the density of Styrofoam, looping around its sun on a wild, tilted path that defies all the usual rules. Scientists are baffled by how it’s still holding together and what wild events must’ve shaped its weird orbit. Space is officially weirder than we thought! #Science #SpaceMystery #Exoplanet20Share
James Brady+FollowLemon-Shaped Planet Rains Diamonds?!Astronomers just found a wild exoplanet with the James Webb Space Telescope, and it’s literally shaped like a lemon! This planet orbits a dead star, has an atmosphere full of carbon and helium (no water or methane!), and scientists think it might rain diamonds there. The kicker? No one has a clue how it even formed. Space just keeps getting weirder and cooler! #Science #JamesWebb #Exoplanet00Share
Tamara Jones+FollowA Real-Life Tatooine Found!Astronomers just found a massive exoplanet orbiting two stars—yep, like Tatooine from Star Wars! This planet, HD 143811 AB b, is six times closer to its twin suns than any other we've seen, but it still takes 300 Earth years to finish one orbit. Even cooler? It’s about six times the size of Jupiter and only 13 million years old. Scientists are buzzing because planets like this are super rare, and how it formed is still a mystery. Space nerds, this is wild! #Science #SpaceDiscovery #Exoplanet40Share
