SCOPE'S SCOOPS.
- Abstract
The article presents updates related to astrophysics and paleontology. It mentions the gradual destruction of the planet WASP-12b by its parent star, which can be found in the Auriga constellation. In addition, the planet's size is similar to Jupiter or Saturn of the solar system. However, WASP-12b is located nearer to its host star compared to the two Jovian planets of the sun family. The planet is said to be completely destroyed for about 10 million years. Meanwhile, it notes the discovery of another fossilized dinosaur species and a team of paleontologist called it as abydosaurus. It highlights the dinosaur's resemblance to the long-necked herbivores, particularly brachiosaurus. Moreover, the said dinosaur lived for about 45 million years ago.
