A planet ten times harsher than Venus
A planet ten times harsher than Venus
The universe is about 13.8 billion years old since the Big Bang.
No one knows how much the universe has expanded over such a long period of time.
Unimaginable celestial bodies, countless.
Scientists discovered a super planet KELT-9B in June 2017.
This is the scariest planet ever discovered.
Considered a real "hell" by scientists.
With the discovery of this terrifying planet, scientists have announced that the record for the hottest planet in the universe has been broken.
The planet named KELT-9B is the creator of this new record.
The maximum temperature on its surface is 4327 degrees Celsius.
It is appalling that the temperature of a planet is so high.
This temperature is even higher than the surface temperature of many red dwarf stars in the universe.
enough to melt everything on earth.
Venus, the hottest planet in the solar system, has a surface temperature of only 470 degrees.
Only one tenth of the surface temperature of KELT-9B.
But if a man stood on Venus, he would die within seconds.
However, this level is far from being comparable to the terrifying high temperature of KELT-9B.
According to scientists' observations, the planet is located in the constellation Cygnus, 650 light-years away from Earth.
The surface temperature of the sun is about 6000 degrees.
The surface temperature of the star KELT-9 of KELT-9B is about 10,000 degrees.
Almost twice the temperature of the sun.
KELT-9 is a young star about 300 million years old with about 2.5 times the mass of the Sun.
KELT-9B is very close to the star, only about five million kilometers.
Because of this, KELT-9B has been subjected to a huge gravitational effect, and the revolution period is only 1.5 days.
It is inevitably tidally locked by the star, always facing the same side towards its own star.
It is impossible for water to exist on a planet with such a high temperature.
The possibility of having life is extremely slim.
KELT-9B is a gas giant star about 2.8 times the size of Jupiter.
Severe expansion due to intense radiation from the star.
So the density is only about half that of Jupiter.
This makes it impossible for gaseous hydrogen molecules to exist on the surface of KELT-9B.
Atmospheric conditions are balanced by a mechanism of constant disintegration and reorganization.
It is hard to say whether a planet scorched by such a high temperature from a star will gradually evaporate.
Of course, there is another possibility besides being evaporated.
Its star is a massive star, so its lifespan will not be very long.
It is very likely that it will evolve into a red giant in hundreds of millions of years.
At that point, KELT-9B would have been swallowed directly by the star.
At present, with human technology, it is impossible to approach it with any device.
Scientists have used telescopes to observe that KELT-9B has a long "tail" when it revolves.
This "tail" is actually the result of the constant gasification of the matter on the planet.
That is to say, because KELT-9B is too close to the star, the star keeps releasing energy and radiation outward.
Coupled with the high surface temperature of KELT-9B itself, many substances are basically in a liquid or gaseous state.
As it continues to orbit around the star, vaporized matter is dissipated into the universe.
So scientists believe that the planet will gradually evaporate in the continuous strong radiation, thereby disappearing.
The universe is huge, there are no wonders.
4327 degrees is not an end point. Will there be higher temperature planets to break the record of KELT-9B in the future?
Are you looking forward to discovering even more incredible planets?
Is there another civilization protecting humanity?
Have you heard of atmospheric creatures?
What kind of force created the "void" in the universe?

You don't need to kill animals to eat meat. Do you eat artificial meat? Scientists: More nutritious and healthy!
Many of my friends are carnivores. It can be said that there is no love for meat, and the essential amino acids needed by our body are also provided by meat, which is one of the reasons why people love meat. However, although people like to eat meat, it is very unbearable to mention slaughtering animals, so that many animal protectionists can only eat meat with tears.

El Niño is likely to return in 2026. Here's what that means for Houston and Texas.
La Niña has been active since mid-October. However, according to the January update from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, it’s likely to end over the next couple of months, and a transition to El Niño is likely to occur later this year.

Trump’s Greenland Threats Push Europe Toward Divorcing America
When you think of Greenland, the first things that probably come to mind are icebergs, polar bears, and maybe some adventurous explorers. But lately, Greenland has become the center of a major diplomatic drama — one that’s forcing Europe to question its long-standing relationship with the United States. And the spark? Donald Trump’s threats over Greenland. The Controversy: Trump’s Unusual Move Back in January 2026, Trump shocked the world again, not with an election campaign but with a bold — and many would say bizarre — plan to acquire Greenland. But he didn’t stop at just “expressing interest.” He threatened eight European nations with tariffs — starting at 10% and potentially climbing to 25% — unless Denmark agreed to sell Greenland to the U.S. Yes, you read that right: tariffs on allies to buy a remote Arctic island. For Europe, this was more than shocking — it felt like a betrayal from a partner they’ve relied on for decades. Europe’s Response: Outrage and Solidarity European leaders didn’t hold back. Germany, France, Norway, the UK, and others banded together to condemn Trump’s approach. The message was clear: Europe won’t be blackmailed. Even usually cautious leaders spoke up. Norway’s Prime Minister bluntly said, “Threats have no place among allies.” Meanwhile, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen emphasized that tariffs between allies “have no place” and could undermine decades of cooperation. This isn’t just a political disagreement. Europe sees this as a test of trust, sovereignty, and alliance reliability. Why Greenland Matters At first glance, Greenland might seem like just a frozen island. But strategically, it’s a big deal: Location: Greenland sits between North America and Europe, controlling key air and sea routes. Military Importance: It hosts radar and U.S. military infrastructure critical to early-warning systems. Resources: Beneath the ice lie minerals and rare earth elements that the world desperately needs. For Europe, Greenland is also about principle. The island belongs to Denmark and the Greenlandic people, not Washington. Europe’s support for Denmark shows a broader commitment to respecting sovereignty — a principle that Trump’s threats directly challenged. The Bigger Picture: A Crisis of Trust Greenland may just be the tip of the iceberg. For years, European nations have felt frustrated by U.S. policies that seemed unpredictable — whether it’s climate agreements, trade deals, or security commitments. Trump’s Greenland threats amplified these frustrations. Suddenly, Europe is questioning something fundamental: Can the U.S. be trusted as a long-term partner? Some European leaders have even started talking about a kind of “divorce” from the U.S. — not literally leaving NATO, but rethinking how dependent they should be on America for security and strategic decisions. Europe’s Path Toward Strategic Independence This Greenland drama is accelerating discussions about European strategic autonomy. Basically, Europe is asking: Should we be able to protect our own interests without always relying on the U.S.? The EU has long talked about building stronger defense capabilities and investing more in its own military, but progress has been slow. Greenland might just be the wake-up call that finally pushes Europe to act. What’s Next? So, what happens from here? Europe isn’t just going to sit quietly. Leaders are looking at: Economic counter-measures like tariffs on U.S. goods Strengthening European defense and security collaboration Reasserting Europe’s role on the global stage, with less reliance on Washington Even if Europe doesn’t fully “divorce” America, Greenland is changing the terms of the transatlantic partnership. Europe will now demand more respect, clearer rules, and recognition of its sovereignty — and they’re not afraid to make that clear. Why This Matters to All of Us You might wonder why this matters if you’re not in Europe or the U.S. Greenland may seem remote, but this story is about alliances, trust, and how global power is shifting. The way Europe responds could reshape the world order, affect trade, military cooperation, and even the global economy. And for anyone following U.S.-European relations, it’s a reminder that sometimes the smallest places — even a frozen island — can have huge global consequences. Bottom line: Trump’s Greenland threats aren’t just a bizarre footnote in history. They’re a wake-up call for Europe, forcing the continent to rethink its ties with America and consider a future where it can act independently — strategically, economically, and politically. Greenland, icy as it is, might just melt the old rules of alliance forever.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.
