Astronomers Reported The Very First Image Of A
Baby Planet Being Formed
Astronomers have said that they have captured the
first confirmed image of the baby planet formed
in the dust, roaming around a young star. A few
days back, Scientists said that the planet
appears as a bright spot in the photograph using
the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern
Observatory in Chile.

From Max Planck Institute of Astronomy in
Germany, Miriam Kepler said that signs of infant
planets were detected earlier, but astronomers
were not sure whether they could easily be
observed in winding dust.

DISCOVER PLANETS AROUND STARS These disks
around young stars are the birthplaces of
planets, but so far only a handful of
observations have detected hints of baby planets
in them, Miriam Keppler said in a statement.
The problem is that, until now, most of these
planet candidates could just have been features
in the disk. Scientists have described the
planet located about 3 billion kilometers
(1.86 billion miles) from star PDS 70, which is a
gigantic gas roughly two-three times bigger than
Jupiter about the distance of Uranus from the
sun, according to the paper published in the
journal Astronomy Astrophysics.

it has a foggy surrounding and a surface
temperature of 1000 degrees Celsius (1,832
degrees Fahrenheit).
