Jupiter-Sized Young & Giant Planet Found Outside the Solar System, Claims NASA

Washington: A recent NASA study has revealed that there is a planet outside our solar system, which seems to be the youngest and largest hot Jupiter ever. This exoplanet HIP 67522B orbits a star, which is about 17 million years old. Located only 490 light-years away from the Earth, the diameter of this planet is about 10 times the diameter of the Earth, or closer to Jupiter. The size of HIP 67522B is a sign that there can be abundant gas here. Scientists say that after the HIP 67522B is found, many mysteries may be revealed.

The Most Interesting Part is This

The most interesting part of the space world is a section of exoplanet, called hot Jupiter. Similar to the size of Jupiter, these gaseous planets are extremely close to their original stars, and they revolve around them.

NASA’s Campaign Started in 2018

The US space agency NASA began its search mission in 2018. He successfully launched the satellite to search for planets orbiting near the stars. The mission aims to explore new worlds outside of the solar system and identify planets that have an environment conducive to the life of the alien. The satellite was launched by a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Florida’s Air Force Station.
