PUFFY PLANETS
SIMILAR TO A HOT JUPITER IN MASS AND PROXIMITY TO A STAR,

ORBITING CLOSE TO THEIR STARS EXAMPLE GLIESE 436 B
THE GAS THIS IS MADE UP OF (THICK ATOMSPHERE) MAY HAVE SOMETHING TODO WITH MOONBEAM.
TOMORROW MULTIVERSE & INFLATIONARY THEORY

MINI NEPTUNE
NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH MINI ME
A PLANET THAT IS LESS MASSIVE THAN NEPTUNE
BUT SHARES ITS CHARATERISTIC THICK ATMOSPHERE OF HYDROGEN & HELIUM.
CURRENT DETECTION TECHNIQUES CAN HAVE TROUBLE TELLING THEM FROM SUPER EARTHS EXAMPLE KEPLER 11-B-F
WHO SUPER EARTH
A PLANET WITH ABOUT 2 TO 10 TIMES THE MASS OF EARTH.
CAN BE HARD TO DISTINGUISH FROM A MINI-NEPTUNE. EXAMPLE KEPLER-62 E OR F
