Lonely 'homeless' planet found for the first time. A planet up to seven times the size of Jupiter with no gravitational ties, has been spotted by scientists for the very first time. Called CFBDSIR2149 at the moment does not orbit a star. It is the first isolated planet of its kind ever to be discovered by scientists. Up to seven times the size of Jupiter, it is free-floating with no gravitational link and meets the specific criteria of mass, temperature and age to be designated as a “planet”.
