Tiny Alien Planet Discovered
Is there life beyond Earth? Astronomers searching the skies for signs of alien life have found yet another new planet.
FOX News Radio’s Hank Weinbloom has details:
Have you read “The Little Prince?” It’s about a little prince from a very small planet.
(“The Little Prince”) “And this whole small world is ruled by the Little Prince.”
That’s from a cartoon version. Astronomers have discovered a little planet – the tiniest one they’ve ever found – outside the solar system. It’s about the size of the moon. It’s probably not the Little Prince’s planet, unless he likes it very hot – surface temperature’s estimated at 700 degrees.
(“The Little Prince”) “Far out in space there is one tiny little planet.”
The search continues for a planet of any size that can support life.
