HD 189733b is an extrasolar planet known as a Hot Jupiter that is orbiting a star 63 lightyears from earth. Observations show it is blue in color, has 5, 400 mph winds, bakes at thousands of degrees and is periodically blasted by flares that cause its atmosphere to evaporate into space in a comet-like tail. It is so close to its parent star its year is just over two earth days long. | |
