Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – Astronomers have been exploring space for years to find new planets like Earth that can be inhabited by humans if one day this planet is no longer habitable.
In that search there were several planets found. But not all have the same conditions as Earth. Even some of them have extreme conditions that differ far from Earth.
The following is a list of 9 planets that have extreme conditions that are unfit for human habitation, as quoted by CNBC Indonesia from various sources:
1. TOI-1431b
The planet TOI-1431b was discovered by Queensland astronomers. Another name for this planet is MASCARA-5b. This planet is about 490 light years from Earth. The planet is said to be too hot to support life.
The temperature of this planet reaches 2,700 degrees Celsius during the day and 2,300 degrees Celsius at night. At this temperature most of the metal will evaporate. This planet is also referred to as the ‘world of hell’, as quoted from ABC News
2. Planet HD 189733 b
Planet HD 189733 b was discovered in 2005. This planet is shrouded in a blue color that was originally thought to be similar to Earth. It is 63 light years from Earth. But this planet is also uninhabitable for humans.
Winds on this planet blow at speeds of up to 5,400 mph or 8,700 km/h or about seven times the speed of light. Scientists assess the rain on this planet is not made of water, but of molten glass, as quoted from Space.com.
