The planet, located 35 light-years from Earth, has a radius of 1.6 times that of Earth but a density of less than two-thirds of our planet ... Observations from JWST in the last few years, however, pointed somewhere else.
Astronomers have gathered evidence of a violent collision between two exoplanets in a distant star system about 11,000 light-years from Earth after observing unusual behaviour from a Sun-like star.
Two planets crashed into one another in a violent, chaotic collision that astronomers recently witnessed 11,000 light-years away from Earth... evidence of 2 planets colliding 11,000 light-years away.
Two planets crashed into one another in a violent, chaotic collision that astronomers recently witnessed 11,000 light-years away from Earth... Astronomers discover evidence of 2 planets colliding 11,000 light-years away.
Astronomers have detected evidence of a violent planetary collision around a distant star about 11,000 light-years from Earth, offering one of the clearest observations yet of how planets may collide during the formation of planetary systems.
Even at a distance of 27,000 light years, the 650-light-year-wide area ACES is exploring takes up 1.5 degrees of the sky, three times the width of the Moon ... less than a fifth of a light-year across.
