Astronomers have found a planet roughly 120 light-years away orbiting two brown dwarfs.

Brown dwarfs could be considered wannabe stars that during their formative stages did not reach the mass necessary to ignite nuclear fusion at their core like a star.

The nature of this planet's orbit also is unique.

No planet in our solar system has a polar orbit.

K2-18b is the first planet in the 18th planetary system found by the extended NASA Kepler mission, K2 .

It is about eight times more massive than Earth and has a volume that’s about 18 times larger.

Astronomers think it could either be a mini- Neptune or a rocky planet with no water but a massive hydrogen atmosphere, called a gas dwarf.

In a hycean world, water would be trapped in the deeper and warmer atmosphere.
