NASA scientists have discovered another extraordinary planet where a year lasts only 21 hours. This planet orbits its star at an incredibly close distance.
According to scientists, this newly discovered planet, which is roughly the size of Neptune in our solar system, completes its orbit around its sun in just 21 hours due to its extreme proximity.
NASA stated that this is the fourth discovery of its kind. The planet could provide insights into how such unique celestial bodies form.
Measurements indicate that the planet belongs to the rare category of “Hot Neptunes,” characterized by their small size, close proximity to their stars, and short orbital periods.
This planet is remarkable for completing its orbit in just 21 hours, making it one of only three planets of this kind discovered so far.
