A super tomato? That's crazy. In London on October 26Th scientists discovered from research that a tomato was changed and made with the nutrients usually in dark berries. With that nutrients this tomato changed to purple in the process. The tomato may possibly fight cancer in mice. Mice that were genetically changed to get cancer and ate the tomato lived an average of 40 days longer than those mice who didn't. Scientist are happy because this information can lead to bigger and better things, maybe even food that can fight cancer for humans. I agree and am happy with this research scientist are doing. I think that genetically changing tomato's or food is brilliant because just from eating we can become healthier.

Imagine a planet that is a giant firey gas ball almost twice the size of jupiter. This planet is named WASP-12b and has been discovered by scientist recently. This planet is atleast 4,000 degrees and orbits its own star quicker than any other planet we know in todays scientific knowledge. WASP-12b orbits its star every single day. Wow! I think that is amazing. It just makes you think that you never know what new and exiting things can appear They used a new program called the SuperWASP project to find the WASP-12b. The project measured the the difference in light when its blocked by its parent star and when it was not. The WASP-12b is located 870 light years away from earth or 5114009186351706 Miles. As all this might be exiting now I think that greater and more interesting are to come.
