Surprised it exists.
A terrestrial planet with 14 times the mass of the Earth that orbits in ten days is rather unexpected...
Kewl, elections every forty days.
No,I couldn't take that!
Yeesss...
It's unexpected.
But why is it not an "oddball" such as the "trio of roughly Earth-sized planets [that] was found in 2002 to orbit a dense stellar corpse..."?
Also have to agree that it is more a super-Mercury than an earth, I thought one basic qualification for being like earth was the ability to support evolving organic life forms...like earth.
Rocks seem common to the internal planets of a system, not just "earth".
