(Crohn)-Scientists said that the James Web telescope made NASA made the first known note of a planet that was swallowed by a star, with “sudden” results.
“The notes from the James Web telescope provided sudden development in the surrounding narration, which is believed to be the first star that was observed in the act of swallowing a planet,” which is new NASA article On observation readings. “The new results indicate that the star actually did not enlarge the packaging of the planet as it was previously assumed. Instead, webb notes show that the orbit of the planet has decreased over time, making the planet closer to its disappearance until it was completely immersed.”
Located in Gilky Way Gleaxy, the star of Gilky Way Gleaxy is located about 12,000 light -years from Earth. A tool on the James Web telescope was used to conduct a “post -death” evaluation of the star and the consumer planet. The research indicates that the planet is the size of Jupiter revolving around the star of the orbit of Mercury around our sun, slowly rotating closer to the star over millions of years until it is eventually consumed.
Morgan McCloid of the Harvard Smithson Center for Astronomical Physics and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts said.
The artist’s recreation of the event explains how the star entered the star, leaving behind a link of space dust.
NASA said: “In its final splash, the planet had exploded away from the outer layers of the star,” NASA said. “With its expansion and cooling, heavy elements in this gas are intensified to cold dust during the next year.”
Ryan Lao, the main author of the new astronomer experts at the National Corporation of National Sciences at the Light Astronomy Research Laboratory in Toxon, ARES, said that observation can provide an insight into the future of our solar system.
“Because this is a new event, we did not know exactly what it could be expected when we decided to direct this telescope in its direction,” said Lau. “With a high -resolution view of infrared, we learn valuable visions about the fate of the final planetary systems, and perhaps including our.”
