Summary

[edit]
Description
English: ALMA image of the planet-forming disc around the young, Sun-like star TW Hydrae. The inset image (upper right) zooms in on the gap nearest to the star, which is at the same distance as the Earth is from the Sun, suggesting an infant version of our home planet could be emerging from the dust and gas. The additional concentric light and dark features represent other planet-forming regions farther out in the disc.
Čeština: Protoplanetární disk kolem mladé hvězdy podobné Slunci TW Hydrae. Vložený snímek (vpravo nahoře) zachycuje zvětšenou část oblasti mezery nejblíže k hvězdě, která se nachází ve stejné vzdálenosti od hvězdy jako Země od Slunce. To by mohlo znamenat, že v oblasti se z plynu a prachu rodí mladá verze naší rodné planety. Další koncentrické světlé a tmavé prsteny představují oblasti s formujícími se planetami ve větší vzdálenosti od mateřské hvězdy.
中文(臺灣):ALMA影像顯示,環繞在長蛇座TW星周圍盤面,有一個行星「正在成形」。右上圖局部放大顯示了離恆星最近的一處黑暗縫隙,恆星和黑暗縫隙兩者間距,差不多就是地球到太陽的距離,這表示一個像我們地球在嬰兒時期一樣的「行星寶寶」,正在從塵埃和氣體團塊中成形。盤面上離圓心較遠處,還有其他呈同心圓排列的明暗間隔,那代表其他幾個行星形成區域。
