Sounds like a typical hot Jupiter orbiting a typical M-dwarf.

It must have formed further out and migrated in...

Clearly this must be a European Expoplanet, because everyone knows African Exoplanets are non-migratory

It’s probably just a space ship.

I sometimes wonder if our solar system had a giant planet close to the sun and at some time in the distant past but it was gobbled up by the sun.

It could be when a large planet smashes intot he sun it creates an explosion of debris through the entire solar system which then leads to terrestrial planet building.

“but our theories can’t explain how this happened.”

ah yes the comfort of settled science

The two obvious questions that present themselves are: Whose fault is this? What are we going to do to fix the problem?

Maybe Obama will have a proposal in the next State of the Union address. Maybe just a few billion for a pilot study to begin with....

The fact is, their theory of planetary formation, namely the “planetary nebula” hypothesis, has already been thoroughly compromised by other observations, but they don’t have any new theory to replace it, so not many scientists will admit as much.

Hopefully, as they keep finding data like this, they will eventually realize they can’t keep up the charade and start entertaining more feasible hypotheses.

It strikes me that the method by which planets are discovered requires on-plane display to the Earth. The odds of that being the case see low. Even if most solar systems are in a similar plane to the galaxy, we would be looking up or down at most of them.
