Discovering the planet is 'trembling'

NASA has just discovered a rotating planet

NASA has discovered a rotating planet "wildly" on its axis, leading to dizzying climate change.

According to Space.com, the Kepler telescope captured an image of a planet named Kepler-413b in a state of intense wobble on its axis.

The planet's axis can fluctuate up to 30 degrees within 11 years, according to researchers at the Dynamics Laboratory in California (USA).

For ease of comparison, the level of Earth axis fluctuates at 23.5 degrees for more than 26,000 years.

This planet only takes 66 days to complete its trajectory.

Not stopping there, the planet now revolves around not one but two stars, including orange dwarf stars and white dwarfs.

The consequence of Kepler-413b's intense oscillation and rapid rotation speed is the phenomenon of changing weather on the planet's surface.

However, although the weather changes seasons, the temperature on the planet is too warm for life to reproduce, because it maintains a distance too close to the central star duo, making it impossible to survive in liquid form. .
