The exoplanet is about twice the size of Earth and is considered the closest “super-Earth” orbiting a sunlike star. For now, it’s known as HD 26965b, in keeping with naming guidelines set forth by the International Astronomical Union. But Ge said he planned to contact the Union to ask that the exoplanet be named Vulcan.

Y’ALL! They found Vulcan. Whom else on this good Earth is ready for First Contact? BRB gonna call NASA so they can put me in a canon and shoot me to 40 Eridani A.
