Child star Jimmy Karz, famed for his role as Bruce Bogtrotter in Matilda, has waved goodbye to Hollywood and entered a whole new career. We're all familiar with the scene from the 1996 film, where Bogtrotter is forced by Ms Trunchbull to eat a massive chocolate cake in front of his entire school, which marked Karz's major acting debut. He then went on to star alongside George Clooney in a 1998 episode of ER, before securing a role in The Wedding Singer. Similar to his Matilda co-star Mara Wilson, Karz decided to turn his back on fame. He attended the Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine where he graduated as a doctor in 2017. "Through gardening, I learned a little bit about biology and chemistry, enough to realise I wanted to delve more into science," he said back in 2015. "I went back to school to study biochemistry, which led me to medicine. I liked osteopathic medicine’s focus on helping the whole patient, and I was interested in learning manual techniques to help patients."

The chocolate was already encrusted on this shirt I was wearing. "For continuity’s sake, every day I had to have the chocolate painted on my face the way it was painted on the day before. "I despised the smell of chocolate for a few weeks after that. I realised then that acting is not easy. There’s a lot of skill and professionalism involved. Have your say in our news democracy.

A new planet has been discovered and apparently it is pretty fluffy - like candy floss. The exoplanet, WASP-193b, was discovered 1,232 light-years away and while it's nearly 50 percent bigger than Jupiter, it's light and fluffy making it as dense as the sweet treat. According to a team led by astronomer Khalid Barkaoui of the University of Liège in Belgium, the planet orbits a Sun-like star named WASP-193. This star is around 1.1 times the mass and 1.2 times the radius of the Sun and is very close to the Sun in temperature and age. The planet orbits the star around once every 6.25 days. Barkaoui and his colleagues also found its radius is around 1.46 times the radius of Jupiter. But its mass is incredibly small by comparison: just 0.139 times Jupiter's.

This is a lot less dense than other planets like Jupiter and Earth. And as a point of comparison, cotton candy has a density of 0.05 grams per cubic centimeter which is why they made the link. There are few other examples of a planet like this existing but its close proximity to a star may give an indication as to how it came to exist as its heat is likely to have warmed up the planet's puffy atmosphere, which is mostly made up of hydrogen and helium. This state of the planet is only set to last for around a few ten million years as the temperatures and winds emitted from the star are only likely to strip back the atmosphere further. Due to this scientists cannot fully recreate or determine what is causing WASP-193b's unique atmosphere but is it likely to be a continued source of study to try and determine the cause of this phenomenon. You probably won't find this planet sold at fairgrounds any time soon though. Have your say in our news democracy.
