PLANET SWALLOWED
For the first time ever, scientists have spotted a star "swallowing" a planet. The findings were published on Wednesday in the journal Nature. The gas planet is said to be the size of Jupiter or bigger, and it was eaten by an aging star which apparently had been growing and puffing up for eons. Astronomers say it's a prediction of what's to come in 5 billion years, when the sun morphs into a huge red giant and consumes its four inner planets, including Earth.
