Study imaged WISPIT 2b, a newborn gas giant orbiting a young sun-like star. It sits in a dusty gap, glows with heat, and still gathers gas.

This is not the first time that astronomers have captured images of planet-forming disks. In 2018, scientists were able to clearly detect a similar, hidden, or ‘embedded’ planet in the PDS 70 system.

Massive stars in metal-poor galaxies often have close partners, just like the massive stars in our metal-rich Milky Way.

Did exploding stars help shape human evolution? A bold hypothesis suggests supernovae cooled Earth’s climate and nudged our ...
