Carpet typically comes in 12â-wide rolls, so designing a room 12â-8â wide is more expensive due to the added labor costs for cutting and seaming the carpet and increased material waste. Then thereâs the cost of the home plans. Pre-drawn plans might cost $1,000, about $.50 per square foot for a 2,000 square foot home.
Fomalhaut b is orbiting its host star at a wide separation, where forming massive planets is difficult. To explain its current location, Fomalhaut b could have been dynamically scattered by a more massive, unseen body located at smaller separations.he revival of the claim that Fomalhaut b is (possibly) a planet after it had been discounted led some to nickname the object a zombie planet, although this is a non-technical term that does not appear in any paper.
Of the thousands of new exoplanets identified in the past few years, none has been quite like this oneâbecause it's still forming. Astronomers led by Stephanie Sallum at the University of Arizona and Katherine Follette at Stanford University have discovered the first planet still in the process of formation. The hatching planet is nestled between a massive ring of dust and gas and a young 2-million-year-old star named LkCa 15. That star is roughly 450 light years away from Earth and is similar in size to our Sun. While scientists previously had discovered other immature star systems like LkCa 15, where infantile planets are hypothesized to be growing, Sallum and Follette are the first to directly observe such a planet.
