Planet Caught in the Act of Being Born!

Astronomers just spotted a baby planet literally carving out wild spiral patterns in the dust around a young star—like, we might be seeing a planet form in real time! This exoplanet is about twice the size of Jupiter and is sweeping up cosmic leftovers as it grows. The best part? Scientists actually caught the planet’s own light for the first time, making this a total game-changer for understanding how planets (like ours!) are born. #Science #SpaceNews #Astronomy
