NASA discovered a planet known to the hottest.

<P Align=center> </ P> World Scientific reports [tech.] News: 9, NASA announced the use of "Spitzer," Infrared Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered a planet known to the hottest. .Joseph Harrington <P> University of Central Florida research team led by the 9th issue of the British "Nature" magazine report that gas giant planets Fengyun number HD149026b, the surface temperature as high as 2040 degrees Celsius, even more than some .low-mass star's surface temperature even higher. .</ P> <P> astronomers said, the planet is located 279 light years away from Earth, the constellation Hercules, a "hot Jupiter", that very high temperatures from the parent star orbit very close to a .Class of gas giant planets. .Outside the solar system more than 200 known planets, about 50 are "hot Jupiters." ."It's like a chunk of space in the hot coal," Harrington said, "because it is so hot, we think it may have no external heat dispersion. But it was the star on the planet where exposure to extreme heat, and .not shine where it is much colder. " .</ P> <P> According to experts speculate, and generally reflected the star light of different planets, the planet is "greedy" exposure to the light of stars is not reflected one o'clock, the overall absorption of more heat to your body. .This also means that it may also be observed so far the darkest planet. .</ P> <P> heads with this super hot planet Saturn rather, the quality of the kernel mass of the earth's 70 to 90 times. .It every 2.9 days to run around the parent star, a week, is the smallest but most densely known "planetary transit." .Transiting planet is in the observer would see from the parent star periodically passing in front of and behind the planets, such planets are easy to astronomical observations. .</ P> <P align=left> </ P> </ p>.
