There is a discovery of a Jupiter-Size Planet with origins that stem back to our Milky Way Galaxy. The planet that is somewhat of a lookalike to Jupiter oribits a sun that is very old and is ending its life span soon. The distance from the star is a tenth of the distance between the Earth and the Sun. Because of its closeness to the sun it is doubted that any life forms exist in this new planet.
