Hello and welcome! My name is Anton and in this video, we will talk about the most unusual exoplanet found that has the strangest liquid cycle we’ve ever analyzed.Paper: https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/499/4/4605/5948140

You thought you could rock? Well this planet is true hard rock.
Wow Anton, God love you buddy.
I don’t understand the title. What is air and ocean? The floor?
And this video is a great example of why I subscribed in the first place. I can’t count on Anton to deliver the most mind blowing, fascinating and timely discoveries every week. Thanks Anton.
buy on amazon! nah I got on steam
I wonder if its larger neighbor could kick it out to the habitable zone.
Your awesome Anton! Have a great day!
It’s nice to hear from you Anton. Always enjoy your videos
Hey Anton the floor is lava!
we will just need to simulate this using that new computer chip announced recently that is faster than other supercomputers…it is too hot to visit
a planet like that would be the best candidate for silicon based life that i have heard of
We need to find a planet made of liquid chocolate.
Okay everyone.
Today’s game is *ENTIRE FLOOR IS LAVA.*
We’ll be playing on the difficulty level *_[OH DEAR GOD! WHY?!]._*
…..wait……~100km deep ocean of liquid rock?? hoooooooooooooooooooo boy
The game of peekaboo was appreciated.
dude, kelvin has no degree…just like you, yourself
We will never go there for exploration
Thanks for the upload sir.
We have found Cremetoria. Now we have to send prisoners there.
00:48 \m/ it’s all about the rock
Hello Wonderful Anton :o)
Love your channel! So glad to see more sensible, curious and uplifting people broadcasting here. Keep up the good works. I am learning loads, and I am so happy for you, as you have obviously found your heartfelt theme. Keep em coming brother
We’ve found a Demon-class world
Reminds me of a few lines from Hal Clement’s “Iceworld.”
Alien: We use protection against the cold of Mercury.
Human: We’ve been getting the translation wrong. Mercury is very hot.
A: Hot to you. Cold to me.
Ah, another Y class planet
Obviously it’s planet mustafar from star wars… When anikin became darth vader
Another good example that being an Oxygen planet alone won’t enable you to foster life.
Take care of that throat/voice, Anton. We want to listen to you tomorrow and the day after, too.
That’s wild. It’s counter intuitive to me that those scalding hot 3000+ km/s winds only heat the dark side to around the temperature of Titan.
Hello wonderful Anton!
We should call these “solar moons” since they are tidally locked.
Ben and elon sitting in a tree 😂
Would be odd at the poles if it had crystals (ice burgs) would be cool to see in a movie.
a world where the ground is filled with quatrz, with seas of lava, and a rocky ceiling.
Pre-1.16 Nether anyone?
That is really wounderful.
We found the Gem homeworld!
Candidate for a silicon based life form?
“Unlimited” (compared to Earth) Silicon & energy would make life VERY different, and perhaps, possible.
Thanks Anton, this makes me realise how localised our knowledge is.
Soo can we go back to the silicon based lifeform hypothesis
Anton, my friend, this is Galaxy Quest.
Hey wonderful person! Great story. Thanks for sharing this. See you next time.
So it’s just like my microwaved meal.
Hey buddy, glad to see you have a stable environment again and are doing well
Wouldn’t it be fun to have a time share on one of those lava lakes?!
We found our first Class-Y planet! 🖖
Anton thank you so much for all this exoplanet info. Before finding you i thought we had found only an handful of ep’s, this is great!!!
If the winds are so high, how/what kind of cloud can form here?
Very informative, Coach
0:47 he’s describing DooM eternal
I cant wait Anton for the WEBB telescope, it will unveil a very strange and wonderfull world to us
So your saying the floor is actually lava there hmmm
Have you seen the Metal Monolith that was discovered in Utah United States? Could you do a video on it, we should see if anything in space aligns with it
Be careful who knows what ancient Sith technology might be on there
Pretty weird place, I’d like to send my ex there.
Imagine having your feet right at the edge between the forever dark side and the side forever facing the sun?
Reminds me of that riddick chase scene
amazing. if i remember your other video correctly, might this planet have been a gas giant as mercury may have been?
can we talk about planet of Illusions and delusionist
…I’m reminded of the Elemental Plane of Earth from D&D.
I Love your content Anton! If only my physic teacher were as captivating as you are.
Love that you look at the camera the entire time!
I am amazed scientists on earth can tell there is water on a planet and how that water reacts.
Thank you Anton.
Doing physics homework till midnight, never too late to watch one of Anton’s videos.
All this planet is missing is duane johnson
Anton, you make astronomy so incredibly interesting! Your enthusiasm for the cosmos shines through your presentations. Thanks for all your work!
I don’t know if you remember me I have changed my name , I asked you to do facecam 😊 just wanna say I still watch and like your videos ❤️
I’d say this is the coolest planet I’ve ever heard of, but I’d imagine it’s actually quite hot.
I love his ear to ear grin at the end of video. He’s suddenly so cute from rather serious look during
his presentations.
Crackheads watching this video:
*very interesting*
Anton ,yours little picture from down right side bothering me.I can’t focus in what are you saying.Thank you for your very passionate work.
Thank you for this info, Wonderful Anton!
There is a black spot when we see that yellow planet K2 … It’s so annoing I can’t handle it 😑
Hello Wonderful Anton!
Its Kelvins actually not degrees Kelvin since 2019.
Hello beautiful Anton! Good to see you, I do not get notifications and have had to subscribe again. Will have to browse your channel and catch up! Hope your doing well. Stay you, always!

– Hello Wonderful Anton!
This sounds perfect for sci-fi stories about silicon-based life
Thank you for talking about K2-141b!! Easily my favorite exoplant ever
3000c to -200c. That means there’s a thin band that always has the perfect temperature for life. That’s all that life requires.
Cheers Anton, Informative content as always! 1 dislike? Flat earther no doubt!! Regards
Well, we’ve discovered the home world of the lava people from Star Trek TOS episode “The Savage Curtain”
Doesn’t matter – a planet with a full liquid cycle, however obscure, will remain familiar to our senses.
This reminds me of that one Star Trek episode
“If I owned this place and Hell, I’d rent this place out and live in Hell.” – Toombs (The Chronicles of Riddick)
I actually feel like a wounderful person by your greeting, thanks mate.
I dont know what is more strange, the name of that planet or its liquid cycle haha!
Anyway, great video!
I figured earth has a rather rare dynamics with a moon that stratifies the planet
I never thought we would ever be able to detect so many exoplanets in my lifetime, and have any details like this. Unless we truly screw up, our descendents are in for a treat.
WE HAVE DISCOVERED THE HOME PLANET OF THE ‘HORTA’! Jim. I’m a doctor, not a bricklayer
I love how all of the people watching Anton are just as wacky as me.. but still hunger for knowledge.
Does this mean that an atmospheric (re)entry would be lithobraking?
the one dislike is a microscopic spec on this planet angry because you said life would be near impossible there
I wonder if some, strange, form of “life” could arise on such a planet? Obviously not anything like life on earth
ANTON IS THE MOST WONDERFUL PERSON!!!
Alien child A: “THE FLOOR IS LAVA!”
Alien child B: “Duh!”
That planet probably rocks.
I remember when my mom told me lava oceans weren’t possible… Turns out your parents may not know much as they lead you to believe
Check to see if the separatist leadership is there. And if there’s any high ground.
Anton clearly has the high ground.
