Cotton Candy Planet

WASP-193b, a giant planet with a density similar to that of cotton candy

This exoplanet is larger but seven times less massive than Jupiter and is the second least dense planet discovered to date. Astronomers have just discovered WASP-193b, an extraordinarily low-density giant planet orbiting a distant Sun-like star.

This just made me smile.

I've seen people make sculptures from cotton candy. It'd be fun to make a planet that way.
