Scientists have observed a planet forming for the first time ever
For the first time, scientists have observed a planet being formed and have captured images of dust and gas particles accumulating together to make a protoplanet in a distant solar system. Researchers from the US and Australia observed the phenomenon taking place in the solar system surrounding a star called LkCa 15, located 450 light-years away from Earth. Catching a planet in the making is an exciting first for astronomers because, of the nearly 2,000 exoplanets we’ve so far identified, none are in the process of formation. to watch in you tube....click here source click here
