The strange truth about rogue planets drifting alone is bigger than most people realize.
Some planets do not orbit any star at all.
They drift through the galaxy in darkness after being thrown out of their original systems.
Astronomers detect them by the way their gravity briefly bends light from distant stars.
These lonely worlds show that planet formation can be far more violent than it looks.
That is why this is not just a fact, it is a real discovery that changes how we see the world.
