  Mysterious Planetary-Mass Objects May Form in Young Star System Clashes

  Recent research challenges traditional views on planetary-mass objects, suggesting they may form through violent interactions between young star systems rather than standard planetary or stellar processes. Simulations indicate these clashes create dense gas filaments that evolve into free-floating objects, often in binary pairs. This discovery expl...

  Solar System’s Journey Through Orion Complex May Have Altered Earth’s Climate

  Scientists have studied the solar system’s passage through the Orion complex, a dense region in space, around 14 million years ago. According to researchers, this movement may have compressed the heliosphere and increased interstellar dust reaching Earth. This dust could have influenced the planet’s climate and left traces in geological records...

  Researchers Unveil New Theory on the Formation of Jupiter-Mass Binary Objects

  A team of researchers has proposed a new theory explaining the formation of Jupiter-mass binary objects (JuMBOs), identified in 2023 in the Orion Nebula. The theory involves photo erosion, where radiation from massive stars strips away mass from stellar cores, shaping JuMBOs into objects with masses comparable to Jupiter. This theory sheds light on...
