A photo from open sources NASA astronomers’ observations allowed them opened the fourth star of the 30 Ari system. American employees space research found in one hundred thirty-six light-years from us, a huge exoplanet, located in a system with four parent stars in constellation Ares.
The family of four bodies was named 30 Ari. First time researchers believed that the planet found was surrounded by three stars, but later it turned out that there was another star, moreover, which is a red dwarf.
The newly discovered planet is a huge gaseous ball, according to mass exceeding our Jupiter by about ten times. One revolution the celestial body in orbit around the main parent star lasts three hundred and thirty-five earthly days. The central luminary has a companion star, but the planet does not revolve around it. Two more stars are located at a distance of two hundred and fifty-one billion kilometers from them.
According to the Americans, this find was the second discovery planet, which consists of a quadruple star system. First in the history of astronomy by a celestial body entering a system of four of the suns, became KIC 4862625, discovered two years ago by American amateur astronomers.
Researchers are sure: a new discovery suggests that planets located in the quadruple star system are found in the universe more often than previously assumed by science. By preliminary estimates, about four percent of luminaries similar our sun, are in such systems. By the way, in the distant In the past, people watched two suns.
