The newly created planet was photographed for the first time

The first confirmed image of the newly born planet was recorded by ESO's VLT telescope.

This is the most convincing discovery of the young planet in the disk of dust and gas.

The SPHERE planetary hunting device on ESO's huge telescope detected a very young planet forming streaks through dust and gas discs around the young star PDS 70 .

The great picture of this planetary process is one of the most compelling discoveries of the young planet in the disk of dust and gas.

Spectral analysis shows the planet's atmosphere is cloudy. This discovery gives us a new way to look at the early, complex stages of planetary evolution and help astronomers better understand planets outside the Solar System.
