In the movies and on TV, we often show strange alien worlds, and these planets is often a kind of "theme". One Planet - it's just a giant solid wood, the other - a vast snowy wilderness, in the third full Nazis. But it is obvious that the world is not so arranged.Everyone knows that the only "theme" of any real planet - is indomitable and scary horror. That's just what I tell you ... Planet devouring light
Try to imagine hell as a planet. Some of you probably think of the sinister and red from the heat of the rocks, so hot that easily melt Terminator. And someone in the imagination will picture a giant black ball of death, where the light is literally dying. Congratulations.Jointly you just fancied a distant giant known as TrES-2b.
orbiting a star in the constellation Draco (little known fact: most of the titles in the cosmos gave director John Carpenter) TrES-2b is the darkest of all the planet discovered by man. How black? It absorbs (or devours, if you prefer) 99 percent of the incident sunlight outside. Thus, it is blacker than coal, blacker than black acrylic paint, black cold and unforgiving heart of your ex. And this planet is unlikely to ever be hungry because it is only 4.8 million kilometers from its star. In astronomical terms it's like you're standing next to another man, leaning into each other's noses.
But it also means that you never have landed on this planet as Robinson Darkness and that you do not go crazy on it ... because of loneliness that will kill you right temperature TrES-2b, which is only five times less than the Sun's surface. This heat is speckled with black surface of the planet lakes hellish magma. So, TrES-2b absorbs almost all fall on her way light and impenetrable blackness broken only by the planet molten sea of ​​death the size of Earth. Because devilish heat over TrES-2b are formed clouds, and, according to some scholars, this partly explains why she is the blackest black. But that does not explain that insatiable appetite with which it devours sunlight. Theories on this subject set.Perhaps this is due to the lack of any kind was the atmosphere. Perhaps the blame light-absorbing particles such as vaporized sodium or gaseous titanium oxide, which float around the planet. Personally, I think it's because the free contiguous tectonic plates TrES-2b is literally black with hatred after the millennial fidgeting on the hard core of the planet. Planet passing through the Eye of Sauron Eye of Sauron - a wonderful name given to the young star Fomalhaut, together with the surrounding debris. Together, they are very similar to a giant eye in space ...
That does not blink ...
which is eternal ...
who looks over your shoulder from the depths of infinity ...
Oh, how silly - star confer human qualities. Why do that, if the true picture is much worse? Here's an example. Space debris, rocks, ice and dust create a giant flash drive, which is about twice the size of our entire solar system. But with the scale of what we have to do - and you think the whole day is lost if a girl from the wrong done to you Starbucks cappuccino. Small swim, gentlemen.
located at a distance of 25 light years from Earth celestial body about the size of Jupiter, called Fomalhaut b orbits a star in the center of an eye. Since this is only a small gull on a huge dump debris, it is likely that this planet is constantl
y crashes into the garbage, creating a planetary scale fireworks from burning rocks and exploding ice. But things get much worse, if you think that Fomalhaut b passes this cruel and merciless cycle only because another planet pushes her to the near circumstellar orbit, dooming to eternal destruction. It's a real cosmic curse, and from it is quite possible to make a very decent film in the genre of space horror (with planets instead of people). Evaporating Planet KIC 12557548 b - a planet that is slowly trying to torture her own death star. Well, a little exaggerated. Let's say, less dramatic.Astronomers have discovered an exoplanet that literally evaporate before our eyes, dragging the dusty comet tail. Tail that looks like a trail of blood left by desperate calls upon the aid of the victim, which drags along the ground killer. But aid still does not come ...
So, more scientific accuracy. Planet KIC 12557548 b orbiting its parent star in just 16 hours. This means that the temperature at the surface is too high for the existence of rocks, minerals, and even walking the guy who wears shorts in the winter cold. But that's not all. Apparently, the universe looked at the dying KIC 12557548 b, at its melting mountains, rivers of magma and decided that this it is not enough. At KIC 12557548 b seen colossal volcanic eruptions literally planetary scale. They are so powerful that the ash flies into space. Actually, no, ash evaporates due to cosmic radiation, because fly with KIC 12557548 nothing can b.
But enough about KIC 12557548 b. Let's talk about you, special and beautiful ... you
... and all the horrors that priklyuchatsya with you if you steps on KIC 12557548 b.
Firstly, on top of you will look huge bright star, which occupies half of the sky. But the time to marvel at the fiery sky you will not, because as you will be breathing in the atmosphere, 90% of which is powdered rock? Then, if you do not finish off instantly numerous earthquakes and volcanic eruptions (and they finish off, and for a few nanoseconds, but in the interest of our story, I'll let you live a few more terrible and agonizing minutes), you carry away in space and turn into dust along with the rest 100,000 tons of pulp, which disappear from the planet every second. Planet, which is constantly executed look like the "rising" hot Neptune Kepler-36c when viewed from the surface of Kepler-36b super-Earths
Kepler-36b - a small planet and a half times the size of Earth. And it forever and ever offend older sister Kepler-36c, which is similar to Neptune, being a gas giant. Two planets orbiting the star in the constellation Cygnus, while the orbits of planets are very close to each other. Unfortunately, this leads to the fact that they meet periodically so close that the elder planet seriously harms younger. At the moment of convergence Kepler-36c literally satisfied penalty Kepler-36b, but instead of bullets in her huge attraction force that transforms little cousin in one big mess of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, battering its surface.
But even worse is that the younger sister no seconds on it to recover after another thrashing. When volcanoes erupt on it longer, 36c reappears, stinking fumes, and starts his bullying. And this happens every 97 days as scheduled. Every three months, Kepler-36b is experiencing an almost complete devastation and does not have time to recover in between. Nevertheless youngest and certainly kept each time becoming angrier. We know very well what it can end. Showboat small can only be for the time being, because suddenly they can snarl, grab a knife - and will destroy everything around. Kepler-36c give a few millennia, and I promise you - the younger sister in the end could not bear and kick your ass over, or what there still are planets bodies whipping. Planet where there is a horizontal rain of glass at about 6500 kilometers per hour Appearance HD 189733b is deceptive. At first glance, it seems suitable for living and very similar to Earth: the same blue ball, no rings, flames and impenetrable darkness. You can not even imagine that there is a cloud and some forms of intelligent life that has not yet found out the what earthlings incorrigible ass. What we do not fly there at full speed?
thing is that in reality HD 189733b - it's just torture for interplanetary space travelers. She was not suitable for life. This planet that literally go showers of glass fragments.
Its atmosphere contains a large amount of silicon particles that scatter blue light. Blue color of the planet becomes even brighter when its temperature (it is about the same as inside the volcano) converts the silicon particles in the glass, and then the planet starts throwing shards of glass in all directions at speeds of up to 6500 kilometers per hour. Turns global tornado glass. This topic is so outlandish that even science fiction it does not concern you. So, even though HD 189733b and it seems from the wonderful place to stay, it is rather not a planet, and the largest sand blasting in the universe.
