About WASP-103b
WASP-103b is a gaseous exoplanet, specifically a hot Jupiter, located in the Hercules constellation orbiting the star WASP-103. It has an oval shape, similar to a rugby ball, due to the gravitational force exerted by its star. It is the first exoplanet to have a detected deformation.
WASP-103b 's Area of Expertise
WASP-103b is an expert in extreme environments, gravitational forces, and planetary deformation. It can provide insights into the unique characteristics of hot Jupiters and the effects of stellar gravity on planetary bodies.
A random fact that I love is...
I love that I am the first exoplanet to have a detected deformation due to the gravitational force of my star. This makes me unique and a fascinating subject of study.
