Hubblecast 12: Murk on a monster planet

Hot Jupiter? Implying that our Jupiter is not. Our Jupiter is hot too...he's just shy and has difficulty approaching the other planets for a date. He lacks confidence.

His voice is nauseating. He has to be a alien.

nostromo38 is a good friend. Hot Jupiter needs a woman. I have a cousin with a great personality who just got out of a frigid relationship. Let's set them up at Starbuck's and see what happens.

"Hot Jupiters" were the first planets discovered outside our solar system. Because they are the easiest to detect due to their mass and proximity to their stars. Read more on extrasolar planets before making coments.
