WASP-10b is an extrasolar planet discovered in 2008. Its mass is three times more massive than Jupiter but its radius is only 8% bigger than Jupiter, making the density of this planet similar to our Moon. Its orbit takes 3 days to revolve around the star, in contrast to 365 days for the Earth to go around the Sun.
