Cute will collect information on the hottest planet ever discovered, including KELT-9b. The Atlas V rocket was launched from California on September 27 with Lantasat. Kevin France, a researcher at the Laboratory for Atmospheric…
Wasp 76b is a planet with a cloudy sky all the time. The new planet was discovered about 390 light-years from Earth a few years ago. Researchers say that instead of rain clouds, there are clouds full of iron. It has an atmosphere similar to that of Jupiter, the largest planet in the Solar System….
The asteroid between Mars and Jupiter was discovered in 1852 by the Italian astronomer Anibal de Gaspiris. He also named it Psyche, after the ancient Greek goddess.
