Scientists 'dust for fingerprints' around a young star as it births exoplanets

67% Informative
Astronomers used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) located in the desert of northern Chile to investigate the planet-forming disk of gas and dust around an infant star.
The team was able to use this dust to reconstruct a 3D "fingerprint" of the magnetic field structure around the star HD 142527 , located 512 light-years away in the direction of the constellation Lupus .
This is the first time such a reconstruction has been possible for a "protoplanetary disk".
