APOD 3.7
This is one of the only planets we have knowledge about that does not orbit the sun. The Spitzer space telescope took these photos to determine if water was existent on the planet. Unfortunately no water was detected on the planet. The indication of life would have been amazing but not likely on this planet. It is the size of Jupiter and extremely close to the star it orbits. The picture is a long term exposure.
