The warm Neptune is just outside the Hot Neptune zone, providing evidence that the theory is correct.

In Greek mythology, the story of Odysseus and the Sirens illustrates a paradigmatic example of self-control. When the hero of Homer's epic prepared to travel past the Sirens, mythical creatures who lure sailors with their enchanted singing, Odysseus instructs his crew to plug their ears with wax and tie him to the ship's mast. That way, Odysseus can listen to the Sirens as he sails by, and the crew can keep their wits. No matter how much he begs to be released, no one will hear his pleas. Was Odysseus exercising willpower with his plan, or was he merely removing his ability to cave to temptation?
