Old Water- It’s hard to imagine, but most of the water that covers the Earth may be older than our sun, according to a new study published in the journal Science this week.
Alien planet- Blanketed by copious amounts of mist, the smallest water world yet has been glimpsed by astronomers as they continue their search for Earth 2.0. Estimated to be only 4 times wider and 26 times the mass of Earth, this alien world is about the size of Neptune. Dubbed HAT-P-11b, it has a rocky core but circles its host star much closer than Neptune, making it have a super-hot, thick atmosphere.
