A newly studied solar system breaks the usual planet pattern, raising fresh questions about how rocky and gas planets form.
Astronomers have found a distant world that challenges planetary formation theory, with a rocky planet where gas giants should be.
A closer look at the planets around a star called LHS 1903 may just flip our understanding of how planetary systems form.
We know that our Solar System is not the blueprint for all planetary systems out there. There are gas giant planets orbiting closer to their stars than Mercury, and rocky worlds much larger than Earth ...
