Messier 67 Star Cluster

Unexpected Excess of Giant Planets in Star Cluster Messier 67

Astronomers have found that there are far more planets of the hot Jupiter type than expected in a cluster of stars called Messier 67. This surprising result was obtained using a number of telescopes and instruments. The denser environment in a cluster will cause more frequent interactions between planets and nearby stars, which may explain the excess of hot Jupiters. Ref. Source 3g.
