WASP-12b exoplanet,illustration
WASP-12b exoplanet,illustration. When discovered,this was the hottest-known planet in the Milky Way galaxy. It may also be the shortest-lived,as it is being consumed by its parent star and may only last another 10 million years. WASP-12b is heated to many thousand degrees Celsius and stretched into an ovoid shape by tidal forces. This gas giant planet is about 1.5 times the mass of Jupiter. WASP-12 is a yellow dwarf star some 600 light years from Earth in constellation of Auriga. The planet was discovered by the Wide Area Search for Planets (WASP) in 2008. Observations were made by the Hubble Space Telescope's Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS). Results published in 2010
