WASP 17 – A New Planet Discovered?

Aug 15, 2009 Extras

I’m not talking about a wasp in the outer space. Sources around the net have been discussing about the newly discovered planet named Wasp 17. This new planet in the Solar System is determined to orbit the wrong way – backward compared to the host star.

It was said that Wasp 17 is 1000 lightyears from earth and its size is double that of Jupiter’s. Whoah, that’s a huge planet right there! If the planet Wasp 17 would be officially included in the Solar System diagram, it would be the largest known planet in our system.
