The Hubble Space Telescope brings out the chaotic processes inside Dracula's Chivito, the largest protoplanetary disk ever ...

Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have imaged the largest protoplanetary disk ever observed circling a young ...

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.

Fomalhaut lies about 25 light-years away in the constellation Piscis Austrinus, aka the Southern Fish, and is one of the ...

A massive collision between two asteroid-sized bodies around a nearby star offers a rare look at the violent process of ...

"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, ...

Two cosmic collisions near the star Fomalhaut solve the mystery of a disappearing "planet" and show rare planetesimal crashes ...

Astronomers have repeatedly observed events near a distant star that mirror processes from the early solar system’s ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has discovered 16 extrasolar planet candidates orbiting a variety of distant stars in the central region of our Milky Way galaxy. The planet bonanza was uncovered during ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has directly photographed evidence of a Jupiter-like protoplanet forming through what researchers describe as an “intense and violent process.” This discovery supports a ...

Joshua Bennett Lovell, who is a co-investigator, said that they were "stunned" to see how asymmetric this disk is.
