(MENAFN - News Satori) Earth is preordained but not for 5 billion years. Our planetwill be broiled as our sun enlarges and becomes a red giant but the exoplanetWASP 12b situated 600 light years away in the constellation Auriga has lessthan a thousandth of the time remaining: a comparably meager 3 million years.A Princeton headed team of astrophysicists has portrayed that WASP 12b is swirling in toward its host star commanding towards definite demolition. WASP 12b is known as a hot Jupiter a colossal gaseous planet resembling our nearest planet Jupiter by which is at proximity to its own star orbiting its sun in just 26 hours. Joshua Winn a professor of astrophysical sciences atPrinceton said that ever since the finding of the elemental hot Jupiter in 1995a finding that was acknowledged with this year's Nobel Prize in Physics theyhave pondered how far such planets can outlive.They were quite sure they could not survive till eternity.The robust gravitational interchange between the planet and the star shouldengender the planet to twirl inside and be knocked down but no one couldforetell the duration. It might take millions of years or billions or trillions.Now that they have calculated the rate for at least one system they have a contemporaryindication about the performance of stars as liquefied bodies.The issue is that as WASP 12b orbits its stars the twobodies make an effort for gravitational pulls on each other escalating tides bythe moon on Earth.
