For the first time Hubble telescope captured a giant planet forming around a young star

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has directly photographed evidence of a Jupiter-like protoplanet forming through what researchers describe as an “intense and violent process.” This discovery supports a long-debated theory for how planets like Jupiter form, called “disk instability.”

The new world under construction is embedded in a protoplanetary disk of dust and gas with distinct spiral structure swirling around surrounding a young star that’s estimated to be around 2 million years old.

That’s about the age of our solar system when planet formation was underway. (The solar system’s age is currently 4.6 billion years.)
