Following earlier news of finding numerous sunless planets (orbiting around many different stars) in our Milky Way Galaxy, researchers at the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology (KIPAC) have submitted one other report upon their study to the Monthly Notes of the Royal Astronomical Society suggesting that our Milky Way Galaxy also has numerous nomad planets, which do not orbit any star in the galaxy.

The submitted reports from the scientists say that they have uncovered a couple of nomad planets with the help of gravitational micro-lensing, which they started using to determine if the gravity of any large object changes the light of a star towards Earth.

With the similar base of fact, researchers tried to know the gravitational pull of the galaxy and the matter that the galaxy has pulled in it to collect information about the material that can lead to formation of planets, which ultimately uncovered an astronomical number of nomadic planets in our Milky Way Galaxy.

“To paraphrase Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, if correct, this extrapolation implies that we are not in Kansas anymore, and in fact we never were in Kansas”, said Mr. Alan Boss of the Carnegie Institution for Science in a Stanford press release. “The universe is riddled with unseen planetary-mass objects that we are just now able to detect”, he added.

Researchers still need few years to confirm the revealed estimation of nomad planets as highly technological telescopes that could detect the number of objects estimated are still under the process of development and most probably would not go online until the 2020s, confirm scientists.

KIPAC team also highlights possibility of life on the newly-founded and researched nomad planets in their report.
