Fifteen-year-old Tom Wagg first spotted the Jupiter-size exoplanet two years ago. Further observations have now confirmed the existence of WASP-142b, which lies about 1,000 light-years from Earth.

As the title says, hello! I'm from Reddit. Because of the Ellen Pao issue, the hivemind, and the desire to explore all the internet has to offer, I'm leaving Reddit. I'm very surprised and happy that this name hasn't been taken yet, and I'm excited to start exploring all that this website has to offer.

Thanks!
