Cosmic 'hamburger' offers rare edge-on view of where giant planets may take shape
Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) were surprised to discover the earliest phases of giant planet formation between the dense layers of gas and dust in the "Gomez's Hamburger" system, referred to as GoHam.

In the disk around a young star almost viewed from the side, astronomers have discovered a one-sided arc of sulfur monoxide that coincides with an already known gas compaction. The chemical trace could indicate an emerging giant planet, but does not prove its existence. Charlottesville [...] The article Cosmic "Hamburger" shows formation of a giant planet firs…
