Wasp -12 B, originally seen in 2008, a gas giant planet orbiting very close to its parent star is. Distance between star and planet is so small that only one planet in Earth Day is complete orbit of a star. The closeness "cooked" superheated gas cloud is about three times the radius of the star Jupiter feed. However, some of this gas has been increased by Interstellar space, a shroud surrounding the star.

Gas thin cloth, and optical light is barely noticed, but the new comments made with HST UV light were using. The team found that magnesium an element of clouds, which absorb the UV light is extremely effective. These wavelengths are highly sensitive weak presence of gas, and the star can appear completely invisible.

Wide Angle Search for Planets UK to study (wasp) Consortium, the Center for Astrophysics in 2008 from the HST, excellent activity, and Interstellar absorption cosmic plane Spectrograph on the planet as well, experts found, the researchers It was built by Space Astronomy at the University of Colorado.

Open University Dr Carole Haswell,, who led the study senior lecturer in astronomy that such a structure was ever observed around a star, he added: "It seems that covered planet death has been prepared. "
