The birth of a planet: Astronomers hail unprecented 'baby picture' that could reveal the origin of the solar system
Image is of planet-forming disc surrounding sun-like star, HL Tau
It was taken by Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array in Chile
It shows multiple concentric rings separated by clearly defined gaps
These are discs in which asteroids, comets, and planets are created
Images such as this could help us understand origin of solar system.
