WASP-76 b
This WASP-76 b is a exotic inferno planet, this is a planet discovered recently on 11th March - 2020, it is discovered by the astronomers the people who learn and discover about planet's, stars, comets and learn about space. Space scientists who are astronomers have found that in this planet the rain comes also the rain is iron rain.
One of the space researcher named Dr. David Ehrenreich said that this planet have a Bizarre environment. the word bizarre means strange and also here the scientist refer that this planet have a strange environment something unusual and unknown things happen.
This planet is is one of the most special for its magical temperature changes; It's temperature is nearly 2,400° C, the symbol (°) refers degree and also this (C) refers celcius - celcius is a value which we measure high temperature. This 2,400° C is during the day time and also note this is a high temperature this will make the metal to melt and other metallic stuff to get vapoured and also this get mix into the dusty clouds and during night time these vaporise metals sprinkles and splashes down as the iron droplets of rain.
Do you know? The time this planet takes for one revolution is too much shorter than the time that our Earth takes for a single revolution. The researchers said that it takes 43 hours to complete one revolution and also note this is a type of a Giant planet this is one of the massive gas huge giant planet and this planet's (size and width) two times of the Jupiter planet in our solar system.
This plant is 390 light years far from us. Light years is the value of system used to express the far away distance from one planet to other or from one place to another only for the space distance value. But same as out moon also for this planet we only the one side of the planet at the night time and also we can't see the other side if the planet same as how we see our moon.
Still the space researchers are researching about this anonymous planet.
WASP-76b is a type of an orbiting extrasolar planet. The Discovery of WASP-76b was announced on April 1st 2008. It was discovered by Cameron et. al. It was discovered by the 'Primary transit' method.
Physical Characteristics :
It's semi axis is 3,430,00 ± 120,000 km.
The Mass of the planet is 1.39 ± 0.04,
It's Surface Gravity is 1.16g and the temperature on this planet is 2525 k which is approx. 2400celcius-
Location :
WASP-76b is about 640 light years away from(in) the constellation Pisces.
Nature :
As you know the temperature of the planet very high, i.e 2400c- , Thus this planet is known as the hottest planet in nature which has the ability of vaporise the Metals/Steels.
Whereas, in the nightside, this planet is 1000 degree cooler allows the metals to rain out.
