Is taking a puff cool? In this case it literally is, which is hard to explain.

Puffy exoplanets are cool, and that’s a problem

Two extra-inflated gas giants are defying explanation. Plus my book in Chinese, and why are supermassive black holes so big so early?

@badastro could it just be that these planets have large ring systems that are blocking more sunlight than expected?
