Polish astronomers from the Mikolaj Kopernik University in Torun and the University of Warsaw have joined Europe's biggest network of coordinated astronomical research.
To locate the free-floating planet, a team of international astronomers led by those from the University of Warsaw’s OGLE team at the Astronomical Observatory used an astronomical phenomenon called gravitational microlensing.
The team from the University of Warsaw say their unique map, which was based on observing 2,400 stars less than 250 million years old, is more accurate than models currently in use.
Slamming those who criticised his theory as “babblers”, Copernicus, who was born 546 years ago today, didn’t suffer fools gladly.
