NASA reveals scariest planet, full of deadly glass from iron rain

Scientists found “super-Earth” planets. or two planets “Land a new super ”, 100 light-years away, one of which could be suitable for living beings.

To collect NBC News, On Tuesday (11/10/2022), an international team of scientists announced on Wednesday 5 October 2022 that they had discovered two new “super-Earths” planets just 100 light-years apart. Both are significantly larger than our planet, and one of them may even be suitable for human life.

According to NASA, this super-Earth belongs to a unique class of exoplanets in the solar system that are more massive than ours, but lighter than ours. ice giant. They are made up of a combination of gas and rock and can be up to 10 times the mass of the Earth.

Giant of ice is a giant planet composed mainly of elements heavier than hydrogen and helium, such as oxygen, carbon, nitrogen and sulfur. There are two ice giant in the solar system: Uranus and Neptune.

Results discovered with the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite NASA dan Search for habitable planets at ultra-cold eclipsing stars (SPECULOOS) of the University of Liège, akan diterbitkan dalam jurnal Astronomy and astrophysics.

According to planet The newly discovered circle surrounds LP 890-9, a “relatively low activity” red dwarf star, which according to NASA typically has a narrow habitable zone.

The first planet, LP 890-9b or TOI-4306b, was first captured by a NASA satellite and later confirmed as an exoplanet by SPECULOOS. It is about 30% larger than our planet with a radius of over 5,200 miles and orbits the sun in just 2.7 days.

But it is the second planet previously unknown to scientists that turned out to be the most interesting.

LP 890-9c, or SPECULOOS-2c, is located slightly farther from its star than the first planet. It is about 40% larger than Earth, has a radius of over 5,400 miles, and takes about three times as long as the neighboring planet to orbit its star.
