[ExI] Giant planet found orbiting tiny star, scientists puzzled

[John Grigg]

"We have found a small star, with a giant planet the size of Jupiter,
orbiting very closely," George Zhou, a Ph.D. student at the Australian
National University's Research School of Astrophysics and Astronomy in
Canberra and one of the researchers who discovered the planet, said in a
written statement. "It must have formed further out and migrated in, but
our theories can't explain how this happened."
