Scientists discover large, ‘cotton candy-like’ planet with unusually low density
Astronomers have discovered an exoplanet larger than Jupiter but incredibly light, like cotton candy. The planet, named WASP-193b, has an unusually low density compared to gas giants like Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Lead author Khalid Barkaoui of MIT described the planet as “super fluffy” because it is composed primarily of light gas rather than […]
