It’s not a planet, it’s a brown dwarf.

Its 20 LIGHT YEARS away. Practically our back yard. The light we're seeing from it was emitted after the astronomers studying it were born. Some of them may even have already earned their PhDs ...

The definition of planet includes “orbiting a star.” So this is not a planet, and it’s not rogue.
Is it under the gravitational field of a star, or a large planet? Define “drifting” in a planetary context, and not in an ocean context.
Correct those errors and resubmit your paper.

I wonder if this is the lost world where international hero/space alien Mr Neutron came?

I saw that artists rendition of the planet the other day and read the article.
No where in the article does it indicate it has a ring of blue flames around it’s top.
Where did the artist get that notion?

The definition of planet includes orbiting a star. So this is not a planet Probably was orbiting a star at one time. Then got "kicked out" of it star system by some gravitational disturbance, perhaps a passing star. Can't see how a planet could form outside a star system, but I suppose it's possible. In nature, it seems damn near anything is possible.

Artist’s conception? What the? If the thing is only 20 light years away, why is there no photo?
