Planets from Far and Beyond and Facts About Them

If you took time to read my previous article, then you know that I feel it’s a good idea to look up to the stars and travel beyond our solar system. In this next complication of space travel, I will be explaining what’s out there and a said way to explore more of our galaxy cluster and maybe the universe to see things like spinning black holes, research on neutron stars, and planets made of diamonds.

Skyhook

The universe is big, beyond human comprehension level, but I’ll talk about what we do beyond our atmosphere and planet. On our way to space, we definitely need a way to travel such as using a sky hook, a tether, hook, and weight that will fling ships to make them go faster with shorter trips between planets and eventually solar systems. Now let’s just assume we are close to getting to our next planet that’s habitable and we ventured beyond and mapped our entire solar system. Now let’s see which planets to either avoid or find a way to live on.

51 pegasi

This planet, nicknamed the eyeball world, is a Jupiter-like, tidally locked planet that has a tight orbit of only 4.23 days. That’s one creepy space dude. I mean just imagine only being an eyeball weird 

Wasp 12B

Another planet to stay away from is Wasp 12B. This planet, also a gas giant, is only going to live around 10 million more years because of how close it is to its sun. This planet is not ordinary as it is being pulled by its star making it look like a big egg. But there’s more to this big space egg than I’ve said so far. This planet is pitch black because it absorbs 94% of the light that hits this planet. So correction, big pitch black space egg being pulled apart is much more accurate.

Since we now know where to not be, let’s look at more ways we can make things easier for galactic life.

Black Hole Power Generator

One thing we can construct, if we do need lots of power for a crazy space project, is a black hole power generator that would surround a black hole. We could surround a spinning black hole with mirrors and then blast it with electromagnetic rays making the rays reflect around against the mirrors. When the rays bounce off the mirrors and go through a part of the black hole called the ergosphere, it makes the rays stronger and eventually come back out of the same hole generating more energy.

Next up, I’ll talk more about some fascinating but dangerous planets.

55 Cancri E 

55 Cancri E is a planet that is one third made up of diamonds. It’s as big as two Earths and orbits in .7 Earth days. This planet could make even a diamond the side of your hand cost just a few dollars just imagine how much less a ring would cost especially helpful for the wedding.

7 Psr J1719–1483 B

Last but certainly not least is 7 Psr J1719–1483 B. This planet is one dangerous place as it orbits a neutron star, a star that emits particularly strong gamma rays from its poles. The planet orbits its star in two hours. If this planet was hit by one of those rays and we found a way to live on it we we would be definitely done for.

Now before you leave I would like to ask if you would want to become a scientist and study these amazing planets and more. Also, like or dislike my article to tell me if you want me to do more extraterrestrial content.

  1. Valentino, this is interesting and really well written! You sound informed and intelligent. However, do you really think engaging in space exploration and exploring other parts of our universe is as important as dealing with problem on our own planet? The United States has poured more money into space travel than it has into climate change. That says something. It says that our world has a major space problem, and that space travel is draining resources that we need. I don’t know about you, but I am beginning to question the importance of space exploration. What do you think? Otherwise, great article and you should be proud.
