Some of space's weirdest exoplanets #2
55 Canri e is an exoplanet orbiting the star 55 Cancri A. This planet has been identified as a carbon planet. The immense pressure on this planet compresses most of the carbon into diamond! Yes, about a third of the planet is made out of pure diamond. It is worth about 26.9 nonillian dollars! But if you somehow teleport that planet here, the sheer amount of diamonds would destroy the diamond industry, making diamonds almost worthless!
