Astronomers have discovered a planet just 3 million years old in the depths of the universe. TIDYE-1b, also known as IRAS 04125+2902 b, is one of the youngest planets ever observed. In comparison, Earth is 4.5 billion years old, making it 1,500 times older than TIDYE-1b. The discovery of this young planet offers important insights into the early stages of planet formation. This special discovery is prompting scientists to reassess their models of how planets are born. “Opportunity to understand the planet formation process” Madyson Barber, a graduate student at the University of North Carolina (UNC-Chapel Hill) and lead author…

Speaking during a press conference following the cabinet meeting, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan said: ‘The circle is tightening around (Israel’s) Netanyahu, massacre network’ in the wake of the ICC issuing arrest warrants.
