NASA's JWST Finds Largest Number of Carbon Molecules Around Planet-Forming Disk of Young Star
Jun 6, 2024, 08:33 PM
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has made a significant discovery by studying the planet-forming disk around a young, very low-mass star, which weighs only one-tenth of our Sun. The study revealed the largest number of carbon-containing molecules ever observed in such a disk. This discovery, made by an international team of astronomers, provides valuable insights into the potential formation of future planets. NASA posted this astrochemistry release titled 'Webb Finds Plethora of Carbon Molecules Around Young Star.' The findings have been published, although the paper is behind a paywall.
