Scientists have learned a great deal about how our solar system was born, but there are some things you can’t discern from studying the sun and planets as they exist today. In those cases, astronomers can look for younger sun-like stars in the cosmos to test their hypotheses.
V883 Orionis sits roughly 1,305 light-years away in the constellation Orion. It only formed about 500,000 years ago, so it’s still accumulating material from the parent molecular cloud.
How does water travel through our solar system? • Earth.com
By using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) – an array of radio telescopes in northern Chile – an international team of astronomers has detected gaseous water in the planet-forming disc around the star V883 Orionis, located about 1,300 light-years away from Earth.
However, since most of the water in planet-forming discs is frozen, observing it from Earth is challenging.

Pentagon UFO chief says alien mothership in our solar system possible
:quality(70)/cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/archetype/CI55IATKWNCW3FXRFJKGE2T2JI.jpg)
There is a possibility that extraterrestrial motherships and smaller probes may be visiting planets in our solar system, the head of the Pentagon's unidentified aerial phenomena research office noted in a report draft shared Tuesday.
"[A]n artificial interstellar object could potentially be a parent craft that releases many small probes during its close passage to Earth, an operational construct not too dissimilar from NASA missions," Sean Kirkpatrick , director of the Pentagon's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office, wrote ...
What is the Heaviest Planet in the Solar System? - WorldAtlas
Our solar system is home to eight different planets, all of which vary in size, mass, and density. Of these eight planets, which is the heaviest? First, what do we mean by heavy? Heavy could be a measure of a planet's mass and gravity, or it could mean the density of a planet.
The planet in our solar system that has the most mass and gravity is Jupiter ; the largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter is so massive that, even if you were to combine the mass of every other planet, Jupiter's mass would still be 2.5 times larger.
