j1407b this may sound like a bunch of random letters mixed together but in reality it is the name of one of the

most fascinating planets astronomers have ever discovered nicknamed the super saturn.

This bizarre planet has 37 rings surrounding it that span an astonishing 30 million miles across in fact the ring system is so massive and dense that if the planet orbited around the sun the rings would be visible right here on earth at night.

It’s estimated that the super saturn is a gas giant similar but much bigger than the gas giants in our own solar system

that means if you were to try to land on it you would actually fall straight through to its core where the pressure

is great enough to squish you into the size of a peanut.

We are going to take a deep dive into the cosmos and look at the most bizarre and straight-up terrifying planets ever discovered.
