Is There A Planet of Diamonds?
Posted by Ryan on December 11th, 2010Scientists claim that the planet Wasp-12b has such a high carbon-to-oxygen ratio that the planet may literally be littered with diamonds and the core of the planet could have diamonds as well. It is the first carbon-rich planet observed and actually has more carbon than oxygen.
The lead researcher specifies: “You might see land masses and mountains made up of diamonds.”
The surface temperature is a warm 4199 Fahrenheit so the diamonds might be a little hot to the touch.
