Astronomers observe earth-like planet formation
Astronomers at the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have observed an Earth-like planet's formation. The star TW Hydrae, situated around 175 light-years away from Earth, has a planet with Earth-like features forming in its orbit. Researchers claim that at present the system looks similar to what the Solar system would have looked like when it was 10 million years old.
