Problem

We do not know if the planets or liveable or not.

Method

We method for the research and information for the unsual weird planets.

Research

WASP 12B: WASP-12B is a hot Jupiter orbiting the star WASP-12, discovered in April of 2008, by the SuperWASP planetary transit survey. The planet takes only a little over one Earth day to orbit its star, in contrast to about 365.25 days for the Earth to orbit the Sun.WASP 12B is slowly getting consumed by it star. Wasp 12 has taken its shape of an egg or raindrop and will only exist for:3 and 10 million years. OTS 44: OTS 44 is a free-floating planetary-mass object or brown dwarf located at 530 light-years in the constellation chamaeleon near the reflection Nebula IC 2631. It is among the lowest-mass free-floating substellar objects, with approximately 11.5 times the mass of Jupiter, or approximately 1.1% that of the Sun. Imagine a planet roaming around space 11 times the size of Jupiter and consuming everything in its path.COROT-7B: COROT-7B is an Exoplanet orbiting the star COROT-7 in the constellation of Monoceros, 489 light-years from Earth. It was first detected photometrically by the French-led COROT mission and reported in February 2009.KEPLER 62E AND 62F. THE SUPER EARTHS!: KEPLER 62E is about ½ times bigger than earth and KEPLER 62F is just slightly smaller than our earth. There located in the constellation Lyra which is about 1200 light years away from us. They both orbit around a red dwarf one year on KEPLER 62E lasts about 122 days. Even less than our Earth. Sincerest believe that both 62E and 62F are sort of water worlds. Warm places mostly or even completely covered in water. If there is land there's probably just some islands. Still there are more things that we don’t about these planets. What if the don't have a surface? What about its composition? Or its density?GLIESE 1214B the ocean planets: This planet  was the very first ocean planet we discovered. initially the scientists noticed a small dim dot. This dim dot turned out to be a red dwarf star called Gliese 1214. An unremarkable completely  ordinary  thats 5 times smaller than our sun and 300 times dimer. Scientists wouldn't worry at all. But back in 2009 they noticed that this stare had a singler planet orbiting the star. And this planet turns out to be really strange. This planet was 2/2 times bigger than our earth and 2/6 times heavier. But at the same time it had realy realy small density and about the same amount of gravity as our planet. In other words there was almost no rocks or metals on this planet but it wasn't a Gas giant ether so there was only one option left. It was covered in water and ice. And that's how we discover the first water planet. Well we can only assume that its a water planet. That's what the mathematical calculations said. Gliese 1214B is very close to is star, it's only 0.014 astronomical units away. Which is less than the distance between the moon and us. The year there lasts about 36 hours and the temperatures putted mildly are just wild. Scientists believe that the temprechers there can reach 250-550°F (120 280°C.). OGLE-2005-BLG-390LB: This planet is really really cold, and it not too far from its star. It orbits a cool red dwarf and the heat barely reached the planet. The temperatures fall as low as -370°F (-223°C). Which is marginally warmer than absolute ZERO!! The exo-planet is thus gloomy and dark covered in eternal ice that never thaws. Still if it has a rocky core it might generate some heat. OSIRIS: scintists  were shocked to find oxygen on this planet! Well rather around it, because it 8 times closer to its sun than mercury is. Its extreme distance from it Sun makes Osiris a melting point, where anything that could burn will melt. It's also responsible for a very short orbit around its sun. A year in Osiris is 3 in a half days on Earth. The atmosphere of the planet is constantly blown away by the heat from its Sun.

Conclusion

Scientists are still tryng to research or find about more liveable and non-liveable planets, and if they are adaptable.
