A brown dwarf is too massive to be categorized as a planet, but not massive enough to undergo nuclear fusion, a requirement for star classification. As a result of that, these unique substellar objects lie somewhere in between. Nevertheless, brown dwarfs can still host planets.

A mini Neptune is a planet that’s smaller than Neptune, but bigger than Earth. It’s made up mostly of gas, and has a thick atmosphere. Scientists believe mini Neptunes are common in our galaxy. They’re known to have a rocky core surrounded by a thick layer of hydrogen and helium.

Kepler 452b is an exoplanet 1,400 light-years away. It orbits a Sun-like star in the ‘Goldilocks Zone’ and is 1.6 times larger than Earth. The possibilities of this planet are exhilarating. Maybe it has organisms as big as mountains. Whatever the case, it’s thrilling to theorize.
