This is really cool. Jess Speedie and collaborators have directly observed the kinematic signature of gravitational instability in a planet-forming disc, confirming a theoretical prediction that Cass Hall made a few years ago. Beautiful work all round. 👏🏻 🔭

ALMA Detects Hallmark “Wiggle” of Gravitational Instability in Planet-Forming Disk - National Radio Astronomy Observatory
Traditionally, planet formation has been described as a “bottom-up” process, as dust grains gradually collect into bigger conglomerations over...

Stars scattered like grains of sand fill this Hubble Space Telescope image of spiral galaxy NGC 300. The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will be able to capture a similarly sharp view of the entire galaxy, thanks to its giant field of view. Credit: NASA, ESA, and the Hubble Heritage Team. 🔭 🧪
