Exoplanet - An Exoplanet is a planet outside the solar system. The first possible evidence of an exoplanet was noted in 1917, but was no recognised as such.
310 light years away from us, there is a young star TYC 8998-760-1. This star is roughly 17 million years old with almost the same mass as our sun. When Astronomers were studying this star they discovered two massive exoplanets orbiting far away from the TYC 8998-760-1.
The exoplanets TYC 8998-760-1 b and TYC 8998-760-1 c with mass 14 and 6 times of the Jupiter. Stars with multiple exoplanets are Rare. This is for the first time when we have seen two exoplanets orbiting a Star.
