Metal rich winds detected in giant dusty cloud around distant star
Los Angeles CA (SPX) Jan 26, 2026
Sweeping winds of vaporized metals have been detected in a massive cloud of gas and dust that dimmed the light of a distant star for nearly nine months, offering a rare view of late stage planetary system evolution. Astronomers obtained the observations with the Gemini South telescope in Chile, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, which is partly funded by the U.S. National Science
