Check out this yahoo news article. I found it rather interesting that a planet could be shrinking.

Oh, I for some reason assumed "shrinking" meant decreasing in mass, which seemed very strange indeed. But yeah, becomming more compact with time, I could definately see that happening.

I'll admit, the wording makes it sound a little more... unbelievable than it really is.
