Astronomers have discovered the presence of a disk around a planet beyond our solar system for the first time.
PDS 70c is one of two giant, "Jupiter-like" planets orbiting a star almost 400 light-years away, according to a statement released by ESO on Thursday. PDS70c and PDS 70b were discovered in 2019 and 2019, respectively, using ESO's Very Large Telescope (VLT). PDS 70b does not show "clear evidence" of a circumplanetary disk.More Related News
