天文学家发现巨行星环绕着一颗微小的恒星运行 挑战着行星形成理论 Astronomers find giant planet orbiting a tiny star, challenging planet formation theories.

天文学家发现了一个巨大的行星,TOI-6894b, 绕着一颗小恒星环绕着一个只有太阳质量20%的小恒星运行。 Astronomers have discovered a giant planet, TOI-6894b, orbiting a tiny star that is only 20% the mass of the Sun. 这种发现对关于行星围绕小恒星形成方式的现有理论提出了挑战,据认为,小恒星缺乏足够材料来生产如此大的行星。 This finding challenges existing theories on how planets form around small stars, which were thought to lack enough material to produce such large planets. 这一发现可导致重新评估行星形成理论,并迅速利用詹姆斯·韦伯空间望远镜等先进望远镜进行进一步研究。 The discovery could lead to a reassessment of planet formation theories and prompt further study using advanced telescopes like the James Webb Space Telescope.
