NASA Just Found Two Giant Planets as Light as Cotton Candy | Science For Sleep

NASA has discovered two enormous planets orbiting a distant star more than a thousand light-years from Earth. Nearly the size of Jupiter, these mysterious worlds are so unusually light that scientists have compared their densities to cotton candy. Their discovery is raising new questions about how giant planets form, how they hold on to their atmospheres, and how worlds this large can contain so little mass. Hidden within the faint light of a distant star, these planets may reveal an entirely different way for planetary systems to evolve. Relax, settle in, and explore one of NASA’s most surprising planetary discoveries.
