Scariest Planets ever found until now

tre s2b is a planet where night never ends and it's not your regular night with star shining in the beautiful skies. Here it's pitch dark and scorching high. tre s2b is a gas giant roughly one and a half times more massive than Jupiter and its surface absorbs light better than charcoal it might also have a faint dark red glow because of its burning air which is as hot as fresh lava lovely in the star system of 55 Cancri

There are five planets four of which are gas giants similar to Jupiter and Saturn but the fifth one or rather the first because it's closest to the star is different in a most horrible way 55 Cancri E is so close to its Sun that half the planet's surface is a literal ocean of molten lava the other half is in eternal darkness because it never sees the Sun the planet is always turned to its star on one side and between the scorching in the dark there's the twilight zone a thin strip of gloomy nothingness HD 189 377 B

 oh I'm not going to say that again is the only exoplanet in the orbit of its star and at first glance it looks quite pretty blue and white swirls making up wondrous patterns on the surface but these pleasant colours actually come from hard silicate particles in the planet's atmosphere which means it rains glass here but the worst is that winds reach the speed of 5,400 miles per hour or almost Mach 7 well for comparison the fastest wind speed on earth was 254 miles per hour over 20 times less.

Thus the glass falling from the sky travels horizontally at hypersonic speeds shredding everything in its path the next system whose name I won't even try to pronounce um this one has three exoplanets which are all being slowly destroyed by their own star it happens because that star is not a regular it's a pulsar spinning core of an exploded star it creates powerful electromagnetic pulses in several directions while rotating at several thousand times per second as a result the planets orbiting this deceased star are slowly being eaten away and will eventually disappear entirely

 Kepler 70 is a hot blue dwarf star that exploded into a red giant some 18 million years ago at the time it was orbited by at least two planets the closer of which was a Jupiter-like gas giant its name was Kepler 70 B and it still exists but the overgrown star consumed it and transformed it into a blazing hot rocky world right now it's one of the hottest planets ever discovered it's temperature is higher than the surface of our Sun

It was lucky to survive spending time inside the star but it's evaporating out and will probably be no more in the near future wasp 12b is one of the weirdest and saddest planets out there the enormous gravity of its star combined with the planets consisting mostly of gas result in the star slowly devouring its protégé

wasp 12b has already taken the form of an egg stretched toward its merciless Sun and it's unable to do anything with its condition in another 10 million years the planet will inevitably succumb to the voracious star's appetite if you ever wondered what it's like to walk on ice and hot coals at the same time Lisa 436b is a planet that would give you a vivid example being extremely close to its Sun.

The Neptune-sized exoplanet boasts temperatures hotter than a blazing oven and yet it's covered in ice which burns incessantly this ice is much denser due to the enormous gravity of the planet staying solid even under extreme conditions and not melting away no list of frightening worlds could do without mentioning Venus the Earth's evil twin the second planet from the Sun has an atmosphere so thick and full of clouds that its surface is much hotter than that of mercury volcanic eruptions constantly thrash venus is gravity is almost a hundred times stronger than ours and those clouds I mentioned are not made of water but of sulfuric acid which condenses and rains down on the ground adding to the inferno but even if you were brave or crazy enough to try to pass through these clouds

 you probably couldn't the winds up there are as strong as some of the most powerful hurricanes back on earth here we have a very long name for a very very cold planet although the host star is not too far away it's a small and rather cool red dwarf whose light and heat barely even reached the planet the temperatures out there fall as low as minus 370 degrees which is only marginally warmer than absolute zero the exoplanet is thus dark gloomy and covered in eternal ice that never thaws still if it has a rocky core it might generate some heat so there's a chance that deep below the frozen surface

some unknown alien things might lurk dominium located roughly 50 light years away from our solar system is a planet hostile to any living thing on many accounts its tidally locked to its Sun which means one of its sides is always facing the star while the other is always turned away the hot side is heated to over 1,800 degrees perpetually blown over with winds reaching 600 miles per hour despite dominium being a gas giant.

It has a large amount of iron in it which melts and evaporates in the atmosphere creating clouds and when those cool down they fall on the surface in the infernal rain of molten iron oxygen is usually viewed as an element that might bring life to a planet but this is definitely not the case for Oh Cirrus scientists were shocked to find oxygen on this planet or rather around it because it's eight times closer to its star than mercury is to the Sun this extreme distance makes a cirrus a living melting pot where anything that could burn it's also responsible for a very short orbit of the planet around the star a year on Osiris is just three and a half days on earth to boot the atmosphere of the planet is constantly blown and melted away by the heat from its Sun Korat EXO 3b is neither as hot nor as cold as some of the others on this list but it's terrifying in its own more insidious way it's a gas giant similar in size to Jupiter yet 20 times denser this makes this exoplanets gravity weigh down on everything on its surface 50 times more than it would on earth stepping on it would be your ultimate doom because you'd be immediately crushed by the density of its atmosphere

 kirat 7b is another oven-like world its day-to-day temperature is over 4,000 degrees combined with the rocky surface it presents an infernal landscape the rocks on the ground bubble and boil evaporating in the atmosphere where they cool down and eventually fall back on the surface in a brimstone rain the saddest thing about karati 7b is that it might have once been a gas giant whose atmosphere melted away from the heat leaving only the scorched core we're used to thinking that asteroids are the only free-floating rocks in space but things like OTS 44 make you think twice and shiver imagine a planet about eleven times more massive than Jupiter roaming in space without being bound to the orbit of any star given its jargon Xuan's size and mass if OTS 44 collides with any other planet

it would utterly destroy it and go on floating as if nothing happened scarier still scientists are sure there are millions of such rogue planets out there just waiting to be discovered there's no hard proof of their existence yet but theoretically carbon planets have formed somewhere closer to the center of our galaxy any oxygen getting in their atmosphere will get into a reaction with carbon and transform into co2 forming black toxic clouds on the ground there would be oceans made of tar spewing up geysers of methane and crude oil there would be rains too but they'd be far from refreshing torrents of pure gasoline and hot liquid asphalt would blast the ground and probably burst into flames on impact hard to imagine anything that would survive such conditions
