Astronomers find sunless world
- November 06, 2015
And since it's a rogue planet, PSO J318.5-22 is basically a ball of molten storm systems hurtling through space.

They captured hundreds of infrared images of the 20-million year old object as it rotated over a 5-hour period. And while it may not be an ideal vacation world, for astronomers the discovery of even miserable weather on a distant planet is nonetheless a big deal. (more...)
