There is a planet that is made up of burning ice!

Gliese 436 B one of the most unusual properties found anywhere in our known Universe. It's about the same size as Neptune, yet it orbits its star at an unusually close 4.3 million miles.
That’s almost fifteen times closer to its star than Mercury is to the Sun! And yet 436 B stays completely frozen! Therefore is literally and ice cube on fire!Well, the ice on 436Bs surface is not like the ice we know here on Earth. It was created by water being so compressed that it became solid.
However, tt would look much like the ice we have here on Earth, but if you were to and pick some up, you would need a new hand, because it's burning at such a high temperature.
