Daily News… NEWBORN STAR STUDY REVEALS NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN STAGE OF PLANET BIRTH Astronomers studying a newborn star have caught a detailed glimpse of planets forming around it, revealing a never-before seen stage of planetary evolution. Large gas giant planets appear to be clearing a gap in the disk of material surrounding the star, and using gravity to channel material across the gap to the interior, helping the star to grow. Theoretical simulations have predicted such bridges between outer and inner portions of disks surrounding stars, but none have been directly observed until now. An international team of astronomers have used the partially completed Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to study a young star about 450 light-years from Earth. They identified two thin filaments of gas streaming from the outer disk to the inner, across a broad gap cut by young planets. «Currently, the only mechanism known to produce such gap-crossing dense molecular flows, with residual carbon monoxide gas more diffusely spread out inside the gap, is planetary formation,» lead scientist Simon Casassus of the University of Chile told SPACE.com in an email. Far from Earth, the fledgling star HD 142527 is nearing the end of its formation process. Around 2 million years old, the young star is about twice as massive as the sun, though it is still slowly growing. A disk of spinning dust and gas left over from its formation surrounds the star, and from this material, planets are being created. As baby planets, or planetesimals, travel through the disk, they absorb the material around them, creating gaps. The data was taken by ALMA during its first year of observation. The array of 66 telescopes, set up in Chile, is still under construction but should be completed this year, at which point Casassus plans to observe the system in greater detail. A more precise examination of the leftover gas in the gaps could help astronomers to narrow down the mass of the developing planets.

International News… LIKE TWEENS Twin sisters in Ohio gave birth to two baby boys two hours apart on New Year’s Eve in the same hospital. Identical twins Aimee and Ashlee Nelson, 19, used to dress alike as young girls and both got pregnant about the same time, the Akron Beacon Herald reported. NICE TRY Jordan’s elections commission on Wednesday approved an electoral list that was initially forbidden from registering under the name «Saddam Hussein», after the group agreed to change its title.
DID SHE DRINK ALL THE CHAMPAGNE ? While others were celebrating the start of 2013, an 73-year-old French woman spent New Year’s Eve trapped in a supermarket in the northern city of Roubaix after emerging from the toilet to find the shop closed, officials said. RESPECT A shy New York woman whom no one took to be wealthy left a shockingly happy surprise when the New York Public Library and Central Park Conservancy recently received checks from her estate worth $10 million a piece just before she died.
