Meet WASP-107 b, a charmingly bloated exoplanet that orbits the bright star WASP-107. Discovered in 2017 using the clever transit method from the ground-based SuperWASP-South observatory, this planet is something of a cosmic pufferfish, puffed up by its close proximity to its star. While exact distances may be tricky to nail down, WASP-107 b’s warm, gaseous nature and unusually low density make it a fascinating world for astronomers to study. It orbits so tightly that it’s practically giving its star a cosmic hug, making this giant, lightweight neighbor a delightful example of the wild variety worlds beyond our solar system can take. Keep an eye on WASP-107 for more surprises from this distant planetary playground!
