Astronomers at the Leiden Obeservatory in the Netherlands have found a global superstorm taking place on HD 209458b (better known to astronomers as Osiris). This is the first time that such an astronomical activity has been observed to be unfolding outside our solar system.

Hercules Constellation hosts the latest exoplanet which was discovered recently. The new planet is four times the mass of Earth making it the second smallest extrasolar or exoplanet to have been found till date.
