Possible Extra-Galactic Planet Detected
Nancy Atkinson writes "Using a technique called pixel-lensing, a group of astronomers in Italy may have detected a planet orbiting another star. But this planet is unique among the 300-plus exoplanets discovered so far, as it and its parent star are in another galaxy. The Andromeda Galaxy, to be exact. Technically, the star in M31 was found to have a companion about 6 times the mass of Jupiter, so it could be either a brown dwarf or a planet. But either way, this is a remarkable feat, to find an object of that size in another galaxy."

When I was in highschool, that was the first thing I said to my girlfriend's mom. I didn't think about how dumb that was, but man was it funny.
If you refered to your girlfriend as an article, the mashed potatoes must have been in your head! Man, that makes a good brain fuck!
