NASA Study Shows Planets Not Involved in Formation of Disk Patterns Around Stars

When exoplanet scientists first spotted patterns in disks of dust and gas around young stars, they thought newly formed planets might be the cause. But a recent NASA study cautions that there may be another explanation — one that doesn’t involve planets at all.
