If scientists' theories are correct, this is the first time a planet beyond our galaxy has been identified. The probable planet is located in the Whirlpool galaxy. It was discovered at NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory in the United States.

Exoplanets are planets that exist outside of our solar system, according to CNN. They are frequently centered on a star other than the Sun. So far, all exoplanets have been discovered in our Milky Way galaxy, with the majority of them being within 3,000 light-years of Earth.
