Astronomers found two rare super puff planets lighter than cotton candy

Astronomers have identified two of the fluffiest giant planets ever discovered, with densities so low they are actually less dense than cotton candy. The rare pair of "super-puff" planets was found by an international team led by the University of Oxford, working with Université Côte d'Azur/Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur and the University of Birmingham. The findings were published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
