Just a reminder that we are in safe area in space and do not travel to far or else you might slam into one of these

Rogue free floating planets are hard to detect because they don’t reflect much light, and unless they radiate heat, there’s not much to see. Scientists think there may be as many rogue planets as stars in our galaxy, but we haven’t found any confirmed ones near us yet.

If there were one hanging around our galaxy, we’d likely notice its gravitational effects or detect it in infrared. So far,..... nothing here.
