Wasp 12b is a really curious planet:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WASP-12b
"The planet is so close to WASP-12 that the star's tidal forces are distorting it into an egg shape and pulling away its atmosphere..."
So the Quran was right after all...? Oh wait, the Quran says the Earth is egg shaped...never mind then. While we're on the subject of the Quran and astronomy, I'd like to highlight this astronomically inaccurate verse:
http://www.quranx.com/53.49
Quran 53:49
That He is the Lord of Sirius (the Mighty Star);
The Quran forgets to say that Sirius is actually two stars. The Quran seems to ignore the fact that Sirius is a binary star system. Whoops! Wouldn't that have been an amazing opportunity to confirmation that Allah is real?
