Hottest planet in the universe where the temperature is a scorching 3,200C

A planet discovered for the first time last year is the hottest ever found, scientists have revealed.

The gaseous surface of WASP-33b - also known as HD15082 - is a record-breaking 3,200C.

The exoplanet's scorching temperature is explained by its close orbit around its star, itself one of the hottest planet-hosting stars at 7,160C.

It is 380 light-years away in the constellation of Andromeda.

After months of rumours, Sony PlayStation phone is finally previewed

Nasa deploys first solar sail spacecraft in orbit around Earth

Breakthrough: Nasa's NanoSail-D is the first spacecraft to deploy its solar sail in low-Earth orbit


It sounds like something from the pages of science-fiction - a spacecraft that deploys a sail to generate solar power from the sun.

Now Nasa has successfully launched the first solar sail spacecraft in low-Earth orbit.

Solar sails use radiation pressure generated from sunlight to propel spacecraft at high speeds.

The space agency confirmed that the NanoSail-D nanosatellite deployed its 100-square-foot polymer sail and is operating as planned.

Actual deployment took place on January 20 but wasn't confirmed until five days later when beacon packets data was received from NanoSail-D.

Further confirmation came in form of orbital parameter data which showed scientists a change consistent with sail deployment.
