Watching a Planet Being Born
This week's guest video comes from Prof Catherine Espaillat from Boston University who came by the Cool Worlds Lab to talk about planet formation. Astronomers have been seeing disks of material around young stars, and even gaps in those disks implicating planets sweeping up the matter. Recently, the discovery of a planet inside one these gaps for the star LkCa 15 confirms that these gaps are indeed surely planets and the future of this relatively new research field looks set to blossom, as Catherine explains!
