Cosmic Chemical Factories
Imagine cosmic factories churning out the ingredients for life! Astronomers have found complex organic molecules in planet-birthing disks, suggesting that
the precursors of life can form even before stars fully ignite. This is like discovering a pre-Diwali rangoli, ready to be filled with colors.
Baby Planets Unveiled
Baby planets are taking their first steps in stellar nurseries. Scientists studied 30 such nurseries and found that 'pebble' beaches join to form planets. This research offers insights into how these celestial bodies grow and evolve. It's like watching the first steps of a newborn in your family.
Life's Building Blocks Found
The James Webb Space Telescope helps us unravel the mysteries of the universe by finding 'raw materials for life' forming in planetary systems. This discovery fuels the hope that life might be widespread in the cosmos, similar to the diverse culture we see across India.
Icy Edges Explored
The icy edges of alien planetary systems are under scrutiny! Scientists are using new models to identify which distant planets might host life. The possibility of life on Saturn's moon, Titan, with its lakes, further ignites imagination. It's like searching for hidden treasures in the deep sea.
