I had one of those starry nightmares again. This time Earth started floating out into space, or maybe to another region of the Milky Way galaxy. The constellation visible in the night sky remained the same for a few days but before long it invariably morphed into a brand new spectacle filled with nebulae and dust and gas.
The whole experience was terrifying and beautiful at the same time. Maybe this is what erotic asphyxiation feels like.
Incidentally, scientists have discovered a free floating planemos, which is what a starless planet is called, only 80 light years away from Earth. To make matters more interesting, this cosmic entity is pegged to be six times more massive than the largest planet in our solar system, Jupiter.
Scientists discovered this rogue planet while poring over data pertaining to stars. Well, then what tips the data in favour of a rogue planet than a brown dwarf? The redshift data is more redder than any brown dwarf which points toward the conclusion of this object being a planet. There is no tell-tale sign of how this planet came to be a rogue.
