Humans can live on Earth for decades. However, when human life on the planet Psc b GU, our age not until a day! Why? GU Psc b is a planet that orbits its star at a distance that is super far, 2,000 times the Earth-Sun distance, or around 300 billion kilometers.

Naud make observations on the star cluster named AB Doradus, which consists of a cluster of stars 100 million years old and moving clumped together. Observations were made at Observatoire Mont-Megantic. The results of the study published in The Astrophysical Journal.
GU Psc b is a giant gas planet, measuring 9-13 times that of Jupiter. So, size is much larger than Earth. Rene Doyon, director of the Observatoire Mont-Megantic, was quoted as IFLScience.com, revealed, "GU b Psc is truly a gift of nature." With distance away from the super star, the planet can be observed with a variety of instruments that enable scientists to understand more about the giant gas planet.
Meanwhile, Etiene Artigau, one of Naud supervisors, saying, "This planet is a rarity in planetary systems." He shared a number of students and colleagues looked at more than 90 stars and found only one planet.
Could humans live on this planet? Because GU Psc b is a gas planet, the answer is clearly no. Even so, this planet gives an overview of how small Solar System and each unique planetary systems that exist in the universe. Previously, it was found the most slender of the solar system in the universe where five planets huddle close to its star. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | EARTHSKY]
