Mysterious planets discovered outside Solar system

A summary of what kinds of planets have been discovered in recent times.

  • Planet which doesn't revolve has uniform temp one both sides
  • Planet with silicon in atmosphere that condenses into glass due to heat; the planet has winds thought to achieve 6,000 mph
  • Strange solar system; solar system that contains large planet that moved closer to it's sun, likely causing inner planets to escape orbit due to high velocity and planet's gravity
  • Planet which orbits much closer than Earth to sun, but with smaller, cooler star, receives mostly IR light, so any plants would thus be black and lifeforms adapted to see heat
