The protostar is located about 450 light years away in the Taurus Molecular Cloud.  

The ALMA in chilean desert discovered a star forming in the outer regions of the disc around a massive star; likely to form a planet.

Atacama Large Millimeter Array's DSHARP campaign has revealed high resolution images of nearby 20 protoplanetary disks, depicting the birh of new planets.  

The observations were made with Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), an observatory in Chile.

The team found large quantities of the chemical on Titan, most likely in the stratosphere – the hazy part of the atmosphere that gives this moon its brownish-orange colour.

Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), the researchers found that powerful radio jets from the black hole - which normally suppress star formation - are stimulating the production of cold gas in the galaxy's extended halo of hot gas. 

Researchers including those from European Southern Observatory (ESO), produced the images as a demonstration of ALMA’s ability to study solar activity at longer wavelengths of light than are typically available to solar observatories on Earth.

Elliptical galaxies are known to contain massive central black holes.

Observational evidence, however, reveals that planets do indeed form and maintain surprisingly stable orbits around double stars.

The most luminous galaxy in the universe - dubbed W2246-0526 - is so violently turbulent that it may eventually jettison its entire supply of star-forming gas, according to a study.

New observations have revealed that an obscured quasar 12.4 billion light-years away which is known as the most luminous galaxy in the Universe is so violently turbulent, that it may eventually jettison its entire supply of star-forming gas.

A nest of monstrous baby galaxies, 11.5 billion light-years away could help answer questions about how the known universe formed.
