Teen angst goes beyond high-schoolers who could have come straight out of a John Hughes flick. Planets also have a phase of unpredictable outbursts before they finally grow up.
Microlensing reveals free-floating planets alone in deep space – Physics World
In a new blind survey of gravitational microlensing, an international team of astronomers has detected likely evidence for four Earth-sized planets wandering freely through interstellar space.
In some star systems, astronomers predict that the strong gravitational tug of large planets could have thrown their smaller planetary neighbours out into interstellar space.

'Rewriting history books': New Milford native learns how planets work as engineer for NASA
NEW MILFORD — Kyle Cloutier said she has great memories of volunteering at the John J. McCarthy Observatory, an astronomical observatory on the campus of New Milford High School.
Cloutier’s love of space and science grew as she got older and now, at 28, she is a systems engineer for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif. In that role, she’s deeply involved with a variety of spacecrafts and missions that are helping to further science.
