Rapper Lil Uzi Vert is allegedly purchasing a strange planet 200-light-years from Earth, called WASP-127b. This gas giant expolanet is around 1.4-times larger than Jupiter and orbits an orange dwarf star in the constellation of Virgo. Unlike Earth, WASP-127b orbits so close to its home star that it completes an orbit in just over 4-days, with surface temperatures surpassing 1,000° C. Read more for two videos and additional information.
Despite being 1.4-times bigger than Jupiter, it only has a fifth of its mass, which makes it the least dense exoplanet ever discovered. This means that the low density of this exoplanet’s atmosphere comes with a high content of multiple metals, including alkali metals. The exoplanet is claimed to have a partly clear sky and an atmosphere rich in lithium, sodium, potassium as well as water.
