A planetary system 116 light-years from Earth has a peculiar pattern. It could flip the script on how planets form, scientists say.

A global team of astronomers, led by the University of Warwick, have used a European Space Agency (ESA) telescope to discover ...

A closer look at the planets around a star called LHS 1903 may just flip our understanding of how planetary systems form.

Astronomers have uncovered a distant planetary system that flips a long-standing rule of planet formation on its head. Around the small red dwarf star LHS 1903, scientists expected to find rocky ...
