The First Non-Milkyway Planet

Scientists from Germany's Max Planck Institute of Astronomy say that they have seen a planet orbiting the HIP 13044 star,belonging to a group of stars called the Helmi stream which is approximately 2000 light years away from the Earth .

This is the first finding of a planet in a galaxy other than our own Milky way and that results in the credit and they found it to be about 20% larger than our Jupiter .

They have again announced that the planet is now in the milkyway whereas its native is some other galaxy.

A bit confusing but still let us wait for the further details which may either make it a record or may prove it to be a stuff.......... :)
