We've Discovered a Planet That Rains Ruby and Sapphire

A newly discovered planet has the ability to rain ruby and sapphire from the heavens. Gizmodo writes that HAT-P-7b produces clouds made of the exact same mineral that produces the precious gems on Earth.

HAT-P-7b, or "Hat P" as I like to call it, is about 16 times larger than Earth and entirely uninhabitable. Besides the fact that gems are raining from the sky at any given moment, it's super close to a star that allows for temperatures around 2860 Kelvin, a.k.a. you'd evaporate instantly. That said, Hat P is locked in a way that only one side of the planet is exposed to the star...so maybe we can hang on the slightly cooler other end and wear hard hats? 

Isn't space amazing? I can't wait until we discover a planet with an ocean of silver or something!
