Top 5 Strangest Planets Discovered In Outer Space

     Top 5 Strangest Planets Discovered In Outer Space

The Universe is a vast and seemingly infinite place, each day scientist and astronomers are discovering new celestial objects and planets which are so strange that you won't believe actually exist.
From planet made entirely of diamonds, two planets with a similar makeup of our own planet Earth.

   HERE ARE THE TOP 5 STRANGEST PLANETS DISCOVERED IN OUTER SPACE

   #05 HAT-P-1B

HAT-P-1B  is located 453 light years away from us. The extra solar planet HAT-P-1B rivals the size of our largest planet of our solar system Jupiter.
While it's technically is large as Jupiter but its total mass is only 60% of Jupiter giving it a quick link to a cotton ball of the same size. So if you put this planet in a huge tub filled with water the planet will actually float. While nobody can provide a valid explanation for how it's so large and lite weight at the same time but the scientists believe that the planet size swelled up due to Tidal Flexing. In another words orbital energy turns into intense heat thus causing the planet to grow in size at the same time the intense heat makes the planet truly inhabitable .

  #04 GJ 124B

Discovered back in 2009 GJ 124B is a planet which have a rather interesting makeup due to covered entirely in water shrouded in a thick steamy atmosphere this is why scientist named it 'The Steamy Water World'.

The Planet is basically composed of one big ocean and very limited amount of landmass making it truly inhabitable planet for us . It's oceans however are not any way similar to the oceans found on our own planet that's because of the planet's steamy atmosphere and it's intense gravitational pressure coming from it's core cause water to achieve a form of hot ice called Ice Seven . Now this is not the same you would put in your drinks as this ice has a strange and unfamiliar consistency making scientists to believe this planet is truly inhabitable planet for biological life , in addition the fact that its extremely close to its host star at a distance of 2 million km . It raises the surface temperature up to 200 degrees Celsius GJ 1214B is not one of the places you would want to go for an interplanetary vacation .

#03 HD 189773B

Possessing a blue color similar to our planet you would think that this extrasolar planet is a safe place to live, looks can be deceiving however as this planet holds a terrible secret this planet rains shards of glass . You see the planets blue color does not come from water rather it comes from silicate particles from the clouds condense with the planets atmospheric heat and pressure. This forms glass shards that covered the entire planet, giving it a blue tint similar to our oceans combined that with the deadly weather of the planet with wind speed measuring up to 2 km/sec, and anyone unfortunate enough to be caught in these winds would be set spinning across the globe with no hope of recovering add to this while getting stabbed by shards of glass coming straight at them . Upon discovering this you could say that the scientists expectations to find a planet similar to ours were shattered.

#02 55 Cancri e

Diamonds are amongst the most precious minerals on Earth but on exoplanet 55 Cancri e .         It really isn't that precious or rare as 1/3 part of the planet is made from diamonds .  If  it was formulated into a single gem it would be larger than Earth . Assuming the principles of economics didn't exist it would also be worth around 26 nonillion dollars at current diamond prices that's a 1 with 30 zeroes behind it.  Among the super category of planets this one is rather intresting entry seeing as its mass is predominantly comprise of carbon which would explain why diamonds exist on this planet . The planet has intence heat, pressure and with a planetry average temperature of 726 degree Celsius . As it's mostly made up of diamonds it's truely a sightable hold as diamonds give the planet a luminous of blue glow that will surely grab your attention however as it's 40 light-years away from Earth you can only admire its beauty by using a powerful telescope .

#01 Gliese 581c

While there are tons of Earth-like planets out there the planet Gliese 581c is a prime cndidate for the most Earth-like planet at a moment having initial temperatures similar to ours at 0 to 40 degree celsius as well as supporting liquid water . It's one of the few planets in the known universe that could harbor life . More resent studies showed that habitable zones are very limited on this planet as the composition and thickness of the atmosphere greatly differs among different parts of the planet . Still the discovery of this planet is a major breakthrough as this planet may serve as proof that there are other planets out there that support life forms such as our own Gliese  581c is also comparable to a recently discovered exoplanet Kepler 438B which also has Earth-like properties .

Kepler 438B

Both planets are located in their hoststar’s habitable zone (Goldilock Zone) enabling liquid water to flow within the planet, not only that both planets are shown to have rocky surfaces and oceans both of which are needed for a planet to become habitable, still more research needed to be done on these planets as one of them needs to meet specific requirements in order for any of them to be truly habitable for us living beings.
