Until the new one arrived Discovery, Scientists suspect that this property is due to a heat source inside it, which seems certain. “The planet has a hot core, and this source of heat changes the chemistry of the gases deep down, but it also drives this powerful thermal mixing that is rising from within,” noted Zafar Rustamkulov, who was part of the study. “.

What the team wants to determine now is what remains hot planet core, They hope to find forces similar to those that drive tides on Earth.
