wrote, in part:
In a discovery that has left one expert stunned, European astronomers
have found one of the smallest planets known outside our solar system, a
world about 14 times the mass of our own around a star much like the
Sun.
It should have been a carbon star, with anomalous neutrino emissions.
Then, after the planet is destroyed in a titanic explosion, one of its
former inhabitants might land here, and, after the passage of time,
obtain employment with a major metropolitan newspaper... an inhabitant
almost indistinguishable from Earth people, except that our Sun's
neutrino emissions augment the impressive strength gained from being
adapted to such high gravity with other abilities.
