      Interesting designation for a planet roaming around all cold looking for the warmth of a star

      Makes me wonder if there are earth sized planets drifting without a star but with enough volcanic activity to warm the surface. I’d hate to think about living on such a planet and never seeing a nearby star.

      The more I hear about stuff like this, the more I realize we are never leaving the solar system. All this talk about traveling at 10%c making small dust particle collisions dangerous. Imagine smacking this thing multiple times more massive than Jupiter…

      I think it’s weird that scientists can designate structures like this a planet but then decide that Pluto can’t be one.

      Just for the record u/malcolm58 submitted this same article 3 hours ago and was removed for the reason that the title was sensational or misleading.

      Not that I am saying this post should be removed. Just saying this article is worthy to be kept and should not have been removed in the first place.

      I wonder if its possible for rouge gas giants to collect enough hydrogen or helium to turn into stars. Couple billion years drifting through the cosmos should do it right?
