WASP 127B

This is Planet WASP 127B! It is a distant gas giant located about 525 light-years from Earth. WASP-127b is like any other giant planet: it is mostly made up of hydrogen and helium.

What to do when the gases are hot? They are evolving. Like a hot air balloon, the WASP-127b became the softest known planet in the galaxy.
