1. The most dense planet discovered in 2008. COROT-exo-3b is currently the largest and most dense planet ever discovered - twice as dense. Its size is roughly the size of Jupiter, but more than 20 times heavier than Jupiter, having 20 times the mass of Jupiter.
This is an interesting thing that scientists continue to explore. Do not exclude the possibility that this may be a brown dwarf.
2. The smallest planet is Kepler 10b , with a diameter about 1.4 times larger than Earth and 4.6 times more in volume. Kepler-10b is one of 500 alien planets that exist in the universe.
3. Most veteran planet: Gliese 581 e was once thought to be the smallest planet in the universe and now it is said to be the "veteran" planet of the universe.
4. Largest planet : "Giant ball" is 20 times larger than Earth and 1.7 times more than Jupiter - TrES-4 - is known as the largest planet in the solar system. TrES-4 is mainly composed of hydrogen and it seems that no life exists on it.
The TrES-4 is also a " strangest planet " because it is extremely light and covers the planet as a thick layer of wood mulch with a weight of only about 0.2 grams / cm3.
5. The closest planet to Earth: 10.5 light-years away from Earth, the planet Epsilon Eridani b is said to be the closest neighbor to our earth.
6. The only planet with hail: 500 light-years from Earth in the constellation Monoceros , the planet CoRoT- 7b opposite the star with a burning temperature - 4000 degrees F (2000 degrees C) - is the planet The first stone was discovered outside the solar system with hail.

The hottest planet discovered in February 2010, has a temperature of about 2,250 degrees Celsius (half the temperature on the Sun). Its distance from the parent star is only about 2% of the distance between the Earth and the Sun. This 'super hot' planet is 871 light years from our Earth.
9. Planet "Super Earth": Called 55Cnc e, located about 42 light-years from Earth, has an area twice as large and weighs eight times the Earth. Astronomers call this the "super Earth" planet.
10. The oldest planet was born 12.7 billion years ago, located 5,600 light-years from Earth. Scientists say this is the planet formed about 2 billion years after the Big Bang and is now the oldest planet in the universe.
