"OGLE-2013-BLG-0723LBb is one of the most interesting planets yet discovered...or is it? This object orbits around a brown dwarf which in turn orbits around a small star." Jack Madden (

"With a mass smaller than Earth it is very likely to be rocky but the surface temperatures could be as low as -230C & the day side would never get much brighter than standing under a street lamp on a dark night here on Earth." Jack Madden

“All [the planets] have such wonderfully unique stories of their own. But if I had to narrow it down to 2 worlds that exemplify the diversity of exoplanets out there, it would be Europa and Titan." Dr. Azul Pinochet-Barros (

“As a microbiologist I have come to realize that life always finds a way. Our very own Pale Blue Dot is home to a wide range of extreme, hostile environments wherein we generally would not think life to be possible. ” Dr. Azul Pinochet-Barros (

“Europa (with its active, liquid water subsurface ocean) and Titan (a dense [atmosphere] and ice world with surprising Earth-like features) have extreme environments that are literally beyond this world.” Dr. Azul Pinochet-Barros (

But with further exploration coupled with our scientific inquisitiveness, who knows what answers we will find in Titan, Europa, and beyond? I for one, cannot wait to find out.” Dr. Azul Pinochet-Barros (
