New planets found, including a baby one


Astronomers using robot team called "Super-WASP" and robotic cameras, said that they had found 10 new planets including the youngest planet yet, outside our solar system. The findings add to a growing list of more than 270 extra solar planets. Jane Greaves of the University of St Andrews in Scotland and colleagues said they found a baby planet moving round the star HL Tau(100,000 years old).
