Astronomers have identified two of the fluffiest giant planets ever discovered, with densities so low they are actually less dense than cotton candy. The rare pair of “super-puff” planets was found by an international team led by the University of Oxford, working with Université Côte d’Azur/Observatoire de la Côte d’Azur and the University of Birmingham.
