Example evolution of an unstable system with 5 one-Neptune-mass planets. Top: the semi-major axes of individual planets are plotted as solid lines. Orbits’ radial extents between pericenter and apocenter are
Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have discovered an oddball galaxy, dubbed the Infinity Galaxy, that could be host to a “direct collapse black hole.” That is, a

Astronomers have, for the first time, caught the moment when planets began to form around a distant star. Using the ALMA telescope in Chile and the James Webb Space Telescope,
Astronomers have witnessed the birth of a planetary system that could one day resemble the solar system. The discovery offers scientists a proxy to study how our home planetary system
