Summary about New Planet:

An international team of astronomers discovered a planet a little bit bigger than Jupiter and the planet's name is called "TrES-2". They had to put a 2 at the end because they already named another planet "TrES". Now, here are some questions you are dying to ask: How big is it? How is it's year? How much do you weigh when you stand on it?. Those can be answered in 1 second! Dunham says that the TrES-2 is slightly bigger than Jupiter and has a 'year' that is less than 2 and a half days! Could you imagine if the earth had years like that???
Then, on vacation, you will have a vacation for about a 100 years (I think we would grow old in the real years!) and then you will go back to school when you're 150 years old!!!!!! Anyway, back to our story! Did you know that you will weigh twice your weight when you stand on the planet??? For example, if you weigh about 70 kilograms, your weight on that planet will be about 140 kilograms! wow! That's a lot of kilos!!!!
