The Hubble Space Telescope brings out the chaotic processes inside Dracula's Chivito, the largest protoplanetary disk ever ...
NASA’s Hubble captured images of IRAS 23077+6707, the largest known protoplanetary disk, revealing its structure, asymmetry, and potential for forming multiple gas giant planets.
Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have imaged the largest protoplanetary disk ever observed circling a young ...
"Hubble has given us a front row seat to the chaotic processes that are shaping disks as they build new planets — processes ...
This results in a composition that is “unexpectedly chaotic and turbulent.” “These new Hubble images show that planet nurseries can be much more active and chaotic than we expected,” Kristina Monsch, ...
Dracula's Chivito was detected by NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope and is located about 1,000 light-years from Earth.
For the first time ever, scientists detect snow-like ice in deep space, surrounding a newborn planetary system and reshaping ...
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) was involved in yet another first discovery recently available in pre-print form on ...
Astronomers may have caught the first stages of planets being born around infant stars. The team discovered previously unseen rings, spirals and other substructures in the swirling, plate-like ...
Many newly formed stars are surrounded by what are called protoplanetary disks, swirling masses of warm dust and gas that can constitute the core of a developing solar system. Proof of the existence ...
What appears to be a cosmic tornado is actually a Herbig-Haro jet. Material is ejected from a young star perpendicular to a protoplanetary disk, thought to be driven by the magnetic fields interacting ...
Archival ALMA data revealed a large, expanding bubble near the protoplanetary disk of the young star WSB 52, located approximately 441 light-years away. The bubble's formation is hypothesized to ...
