Editing



The new Popular Science magazine for July has an interesting item on p10. An astronomy research team released a great photo etc. The magazine printed the photo and an 'edited' snip of the text.

""The young planet is believed to be only a few hundred thousand years old and 930 million miles in diameter.""

WOW. What is it made of and what is its surface gravity?

In a million years it will condense into a hydrogen / helium gas giant the size of Jupiter.

So the editors prefer Pop over Sci.
