- This new planet is 1,200 light years away from Earth. And is by far the largest planet in shape
- The new planet, named Wasp-193-b, is different
- This planet completes its orbit around the Sun in 6.2 days
There are so many unsolved mysteries in the universe that humans are unaware of. Because the knowledge of the universe is immeasurable. For centuries, scientists have been working day and night to find out the secrets of this. Meanwhile, a team of researchers has discovered a planet. You will be surprised to know. The planet that scientists have discovered has been named Wasp-193-b. He said that, exoplanets need a Gracious planet. However, its density is not high. This is why it is called the lightest planet.
Success to the search team
Khalid Barkooi is the head of this scientific team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He told that, basically this is a soft planet. This is because it is composed of light gases rather than solids. The scientific team said that the planet is mainly composed of hydrogen and helium. This planet was discovered last year. It is 1,200 light years from Earth. And is by far the largest planet in shape. Khalid Barkui said it is the second least dense planet.
Characteristics of a new planet
Named Wasp-193-b, this planet is larger than Jupiter in shape. The existence of a planet with such a low density is not possible based on certain parameters. This planet completes its orbit in 6.2 days. And due to the many types of gas on this planet, the light is very dim.
