Creation Moment 11/7/2017 - NGTS-1b

He taketh the wise in their own craftiness:

and the counsel of the froward is carried headlong.

Job 5:13

"Astronomers have discovered a “monster planet” that challenges planet formation theories. Science Daily reports,

A giant planet, which should not exist according to planet formation theory, has been discovered around a distant star. The new research is presented in a paper recently accepted for publication in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
The existence of the ‘monster’ planet, ‘NGTS-1b’, challenges theories of planet formation which state that a planet of this size could not be formed around such a small star. According to these theories, small stars can readily form rocky planets but do not gather enough material together to form Jupiter-sized planets.

Astrobiology Magazine also reprinted the press release from the Royal Astronomical Society. And National Geographic headlined its post, “Bizarrely Huge Planet Discovered Orbiting Tiny Star.” The subhead reads, “The size mismatch is the largest ever seen and challenges theories of how planets form.”

There isn’t supposed to be enough dust around small red stars to form large planets. According to current thinking, large stars have enough dust to produce gas giants, but small stars do not."
