It may be historical. Space.com shows a photo of the first planet outside our own solar system.

They report it to be anywhere from 2x to 4x the size of Jupiter and - like The Red-Eyed Planet - is undoubtedly gaseous [within the GQ Lupi star system.] It is without question linked gravitationally to it, they report, though it could be a brown dwarf [a.k.a. a very small - and quite worthless - sun]. Yet, the gravitiational attraction between the two bodies seem to negate any possibility of that.
It is also "young", being only a million years old, in contrast to our own sun, Sol, [which is, after all, about 4.6 BILLION years old] and believed to be located some 400 million light years away from us.
Or, to put it into perspective - as one "planet formation theorist" from The Carnegie Institution allowed: "I think there's a really good chance that this is an historic photo."
If I were you, I'd check it out!

Darwin's Blind Spot by Frank Ryan

The symbiotic pattern of evolution is everywhere and allows us a very different and fascinating window into the way symbiotic viruses work, since all viruses are symbiotic, including those involved in our human reproduction.

Virolution by Frank Ryan

Our human genome is full of viruses similar to HIV-1. These have played an important role in human evolution and still play an important role in human embryology and day-to-day chemistry. Just how important are they to our evolution past and future?
