NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has made the first-ever and long-anticipated detection of ice outside of our own solar system. The frozen water was found within a debris disk circling HD 181327, a ...

At long last, particles of water–ice have been discovered in the frozen Kuiper Belt of another star. The discovery, made by the James Webb Space Telescope, is a major step forward in filling in gaps ...

For decades it was thought that water was prevalent in the outer reaches of the Solar System early in its history, with ...

In a first-ever discovery, scientists have detected water ice surrounding a young star that closely resembles our Sun. This ...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope detected water ice in the debris disk of HD 181327. The star HD 181327, located 155 light-years away, is only 23 million years old. Water ice makes up over 20% of ...

Xie's team reports that the disk reflectance spectrum of HD 181327 at 90–105 AU from it has a broad bowl-shaped dip between 2.7 and 3.4 µm. This is consistent with the 3 µm feature of water ...

NASA says with the help of data from the James Webb Space Telescope, scientists have confirmed the presence of water crystals around a Sun-like star, some 155 light-years away from Earth. The star, ...

Crystalline water ice was found in the debris disk of star HD 181327. The star is 23 million years old and located 155 light-years away. Using NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a team of ...

Caption The marked asymmetry of the debris disk around the star HD 181327 (shown here in a Hubble image) suggests it may have formed as a result of the collision of two small bodies. Disk ...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope has confirmed that crystalline water ice exists in the debris disk surrounding HD 181327, a young star that resembles the sun. In a historic finding, NASA's James ...
