Title Planet Star Data Notes Most massive The most massive planet is difficult to define due to the blurry line between planets and brown dwarfs.If the borderline is defined as the deuterium fusion threshold (roughly 13 M J at solar metallicity [26] [b]), the most massive planets are those with true mass closest to that cutoff; if planets and brown dwarfs are differentiated based on formation ...

Planets from the Solar System were also included for comparison purposes. Discovered in 2006, OGLE-2005-BLG-390Lb is the coldest known exoplanet, and was nicknamed "Hoth" by NASA in reference to the planet from the Star Wars franchise. [1] All temperatures here are equilibrium temperatures.
An artist's rendition of Kepler-62f, a potentially habitable exoplanet discovered using data transmitted by the Kepler space telescope. The list of exoplanets detected by the Kepler space telescope contains bodies with a wide variety of properties, with significant ranges in orbital distances, masses, radii, composition, habitability, and host star type.
Astronomers say they have uncovered an unusual planet that’s about 50% bigger than Jupiter and somehow still the second lightest planet ever found.
Planet c is possibly a potentially habitable Super-Earth but is probably too hot or massive.

However, it is a gas giant, so it itself is uninhabitable although a large moon orbiting ...
In 2019, the program had captured 10 million miles of Street View imagery and 36 million square miles of Google Earth imagery, covering most of the planet. Meanwhile, as of 2020, around a billion ...
As absurd as it can sound on paper, the truth is that facts are just fun, the more obscure, weird and random, the better. After all, everyone needs a handful of interesting trivia to pull out at ...
