Astronomers Reported The Very First Image Of A Baby Planet Being Formed Astronomers have said that they have captured the first confirmed image of the baby planet formed in the dust, roaming around a young star.

From Max Planck Institute of Astronomy in Germany, Miriam Kepler said that signs of infant planets were detected earlier, but astronomers were not sure whether they could easily be observed in winding dust.
