Original Message
They are referring to this planet as a "Water World." This kind of reminds me of Tiamat, talked about in Sumerian texts I believe. Although it isn't Tiamat, it would prove that there are such planets, giving the ancient text creditability.
"Scientists have discovered a new type of alien planet — a steamy waterworld that is larger than Earth but smaller than Uranus."
"To date, astronomers have discovered more than 700 planets beyond our solar system, with about 2,300 more "candidates" awaiting confirmation by follow-up observations."
"They've discovered several alien worlds that orbit two suns, like Luke Skywalker's home planet of Tatooine in the "Star Wars" films."
