At 379 light-years from Earth, a giant planet three times larger than Jupiter was found


A NASA associate scientist discovered a special exoplanet

A year outside the solar system with the symbol TOI-2180-B is 261 days.

WASHINGTON: Paul Delba, a citizen scientist at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), a volunteer contributor to NASA, has three times more mass (mass) than the giant planet Jupiter in our solar system.

NASA sources said that the planet with the symbol TOI-2180-B found outside our solar system is 379 light years away from the Earth. The mass of the parent star of this planet (the planet which revolves around the star is called the parent star) is equal to the mass of our Sun. The planets outside our solar system are called exoplanets by astronomers.

This giant planet has thus been discovered on the basis of information obtained by our (NASA) Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. Paul Delba, a NASA citizen scientist and astronomer at the University of California Riverside in the United States, reported that the Exoplanet, labeled TOI-2180-B, was a giant sphere of air.

At the same time, the mass of this planet is three times more than the mass of Jupiter. In other words, Jupiter's force, which has a total of 79 satellites, is 317.83 times that of our Earth. According to our computer model, the mass of this new and huge planet is likely to be 105 times more than the mass of the Earth.

However, the surprising thing is that the diameter of this planet orbiting at the farthest distance from the Earth is equal to the diameter of Jupiter. This means that this exoplanet is a very dense planet and has become a subject of research and study for astronomers.

Astronomers around the world want to research and study the planet TOI-2180-B because its year is 261 days. It has an average temperature of 170 degrees Fahrenheit (76.66 degrees Celsius).
