ALMA image of the exoplanet PDS 70c and its surrounding disk, the first ever observed moon-forming disk around an exoplanet. The image shows a bright ring of dust and gas surrounding the star PDS 70, with a smaller, fuzzy disk around the planet PDS 70c, indicating the formation of moons. The disk around PDS 70c is believed to be capable of forming several Luna-sized moons.

New analysis of lunar samples from the Moon's far side reveals significantly less water than the near side, supporting the theory that a massive collision shaped the Moon's asymmetry.

Close-up grayscale image of the Moon's surface, revealing numerous impact craters of varying sizes. This detailed view supports the giant-impact theory of the Moon's origin, suggesting its formation from debris resulting from a collision between Earth and a Mars-sized body billions of years ago. The image highlights the Moon's heavily cratered landscape, a testament to its early history in the solar system.

ALMA image reveals a never-before-seen dusty disk around exoplanet PDS 70c, hinting at the formation of moons. This Jupiter-sized planet, part of the PDS 70 system, is surrounded by a disk with a radius similar to Earth's orbit around the sun, potentially forming 3 Luna-sized moons. This groundbreaking discovery was made using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Chile.
