New Mega Solar Systems Discovered




Two new solar systems have been detected around hyperstars thirty times more massive than our Sun. Resembling Saturn, these giant stars are surrounded by rings of debris, proving for the first time that planets can actually accrete around stars once thought too large to allow such formations. This discovery, along with the recent sighting of a planet only five times the size of Earth, proves once again that there are not only a nearly infinite numbers of stars in the universe, but also planets!

I wish Giodarno Bruno were alive to see his original ideas realized.
