Rogue Planet Discovered Wandering Our Milky Way Without A Host

rogue planet

Astronomers have spotted another “rogue planet” wandering throughout our Milky Way galaxy. Interestingly enough, this exoplanet doesn’t have any parent star attached to it. It was also found out that it has a similar mass between that of Earth and Mars, though it’s 10% heavier. Once confirmed, it would be a huge scientific milestone in observing rogue planets, which are believed to be in abundance especially outside our galaxy.
