5 of the most unusual planets in the Universe

12 April cosmonautics Day. In 1961, on this day, flew in space the first man — Yuri Gagarin. His mission was to circumnavigate the Earth — the planet on which we, its inhabitants, know a lot. But in space there are many planets capable of hitting us with their characteristics. Some of them in our collection.

V830 Tauri b — an exoplanet orbiting the young star V830 Taurus at a distance of about 427 light years from the Sun. V830 Tauri b is the youngest of the discovered planets — her age about 2 million years. For comparison, the age of the Earth to 4.54 billion years.

the Exoplanet, called HD 106906 b is located in the constellation of the southern cross at a distance of about 300 light-years from the Sun.

the Accepted theory of the formation of stellar systems cannot explain such distance of the planet from its sun. due “solitude” planet cools quickly, but thanks to a small age (about 13 million years old — about 350 times less than the age of the Earth) it still retained the heat since its formation.

TrES-2b — black gas giant that orbits the star GSC 03549-02811 and is located 750 light years from the Solar system. Over 14 years of research, this planet is considered to be the darkest of all known. TrES-2b reflects only 0.1% of the light reaching it — it is darker than black paint or soot.

discovered to date, the smallest exoplanets mass PSR B1257+12 A, which is located in the constellation Virgo, approximately 2300 light years from us. Its mass is about 2% of the mass of the Earth.

by the Way, PSR B1257+12 A even has an official name chosen by the International astronomical Union. The planet called Draugr in honor of the creatures from Norse mythology — the walking dead close to the vampires.

KELT-9 b — exoplanet in the constellation of Cygnus at a distance of about 620 light-years from the Sun. It revolves around one of the biggest of those stars that have planets, and this explains the incredibly high temperature of KELT-9 b.

At this temperature begin to break down the molecules, and the planet in motion there is a tail, like a comet.

a Pandemic — the same unusual phenomenon for the Earth as these planets for space. But to survive the difficult times easier if you know what to do. Especially for you we have gathered the best for work, studies and entertainment on the project #Luchadora.
