TWO PLANETS DISCOVERED THAT ARE A COOL BUT AWKWARD

Imagine using a telescope to look out at the billions of stars and planets and something starts looking back at you. No, we didn’t find aliens looking at us, but we did find a planet that looks like a giant eyeball. It’s basically a planet of ice with an ocean in the middle of it. While not as cool to look at another planet that was discovered in 2005 is giving new insights with its awkward weather. That one apparently rains glass and smells like poo gas. While we won’t be visiting them anytime soon we can wonder at them from afar.
