At the flick of a switch, our heroes are flashed in a blur of passing stars to safety elsewhere in the universe.
Stars shine by converting their mass into energy, as described by Albert Einstein's famous equation E=MC squared.

Developed at A*STAR, the model describes the movement of vibrations called phonons, which are responsible for carrying heat in insulating materials.

The bright central star has been removed mostly to enable the detection of the exoplanet one million times fainter.
Finding dust around a star is like seeing a large signpost that tells us there might be a planet,
when a planet blocks a star.""To detect planets, Kepler sees their shadow; GPI sees their glow,
"The astronomers use adaptive optics to sharpen the image of a star, and then block out the starlight.
the team set out to look for planets orbiting young stars. To date, the astronomers have looked at nearly 100 stars."
"51 Eridani is only 20 million years old, a little more massive than our sun a perfect target,"says James Graham, a professor at UC Berkeley and Project Scientist for GPI.
20 million years is young for a star, and this is exactly what made the direct detection of the planet possible,
Once the astronomers zeroed in on the star, they blocked its light and spotted 51 Eridani b orbiting a little farther away from its parent star than Saturn does from the sun
. Even though the light from the planet is very faint nearly a million times fainter than its star subsequent observations revealed that it is roughly twice the mass of Jupiter.
Other directly-imaged planets are five times the mass of Jupiter or more. In addition to being the faintest planet ever imaged
"All of the exoplanets astronomers have imaged before have atmospheres that look like stars very cool stars, but still stars,"says Macintosh,
who led the construction of GPI and now leads the survey.""This is the first one that really looks like a planet."
A sailor will use cues such as the stars or landmarks to determine where their ship is on a map,
In total the team measured outputs across 21 different wavelengths from ultraviolet (characterises younger stars) to the far infrared (characterises younger stars.

"They wanted to redistribute the blazing light of the halo around a star, so that the faint light coming from a planet orbiting that star can be observed with better contrast
--and then analyze the planet's light to learn about its composition and other characteristics,

When stars shine they are converting that mass back into energy, as described by Albert Einstein's famous equation E=mc2 (energy=mass x speed of light squared).

A Red-hot Young Jupiter Around Distant Star (Infographic) Astronomers have photographed directly a planet not unlike Jupiter orbiting 51 Eridani, a sunlike star 96 light-years from Earth.
The star is young, only 20 million years old (compared with the sun's 4. 6 billion years).
The Gemini Planet Imager is designed an instrument specifically for directly imaging exoplanets around distant stars s
a pair of stars in Sagittarius. The team took advantage of an offering for Early Science using the Gemini Planet Imager to study infrared light scattered off dust grains in the disk around the binary system V4046 Sgr.
Analysis of the data also indicates that the dust grains orbiting the star are sorted by particle size,
It akin to the difference between looking at the stars with a standard telescope versus an observatory-quality refractor telescope, according to Yale chair of neurology, Dr. David Hafler, who worked with Montgomery to bring Cytof to Yale. t allows
but from a low-mass star at the boundary between stars and brown dwarfs. The discovery reveals a major difference between the magnetic activity of more-massive stars and that of brown dwarfs and planets,
Brown dwarfs, sometimes called ailed stars, are objects more massive than planets, yet too small to trigger the thermonuclear reactions at their cores that power stars.
The astronomers said their observations of LSR J1835+3259 indicate that the coolest stars and brown dwarfs have outer atmospheres that support auroral activity,
rather than the type of magnetic activity seen on more-massive and hotter stars. The discovery also has implications for studying extrasolar planets.
The aurora the scientists observed from LSR J1835+3259 appears powered by a little-understood dynamo process similar to that seen on larger planets in our Solar system.
Meteors (popularly known as hooting stars are the result of small particles, some as small as a grain of sand, entering the Earth atmosphere at high speed.
which themselves each contain hundreds of billions of stars. The clusters grow bigger and bigger over time as they acquire new members.

so this is obviously not something that is going to be used to draw the Millennium Falcon into the Death Star any time soon.
If they succeed their first-of-its-kind demonstration of this new technology will be used for finding Earthlike exoplanets orbiting distant stars.
We are building a telescope that will let us see the sun the way we would see other stars said Phillips who is a staff scientist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

Better Precision with a Laserthe radial velocity method works by measuring how exoplanet gravity changes the light emitted from its star.

As the star recedes the crests move further apart and the frequencies seem lower and redder.
Astronomers measure it by capturing the spectrum of a star on the pixels of a digital camera
Only large gas giants or super-earths close to their host stars have enough gravity to cause those changes.
This way we can compare data we take tonight with data from the same star five years from now
The stars we look at are brightest in the green visible range and this is the range spectrographs are built to handle Phillips said.

What the team found led them to examine additional observations of Sagittarius A-Star (A*)the source that marks the Milky way's central black hole.
From recognizing speech to identifying unusual stars, new discoveries often begin with comparison of data streams to find connections and spot outliers.
The space between stars is not empty it contains a vast reservoir of diffuse material with about 5-10%of the total mass of our Milky way galaxy.
the inner winds of a class of evolved stars, and the ejecta of supernovae. The grains form out of molecular seeds.
In evolved stars, such seeds might be molecules like Tio, VO, Zro, C 2, CN, or C 3, species that have been known for a hundred years;
Carbon-rich stars are ones that have this excess carbon. The dust forms from nucleation seeds that grow as molecules condense onto it via numerous steps that are still quite mysterious,
revealing the first direct evidence that brown dwarfs are produced by a scaled-down version of the same process that produces stars.
The astronomers studied a sample of still-forming brown dwarfs in a star-forming region some 450 light-years from Earth in the constellation Taurus,
and shows that they form in a way similar to that of stars, said Oscar Morata, of the Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics of the Academia Sinica in Taiwan. hese are the lowest-mass objects that seem to form the same way as stars,
he added. Brown dwarfs are less massive than stars, but more massive than giant planets such as Jupiter.
They have insufficient mass to produce the temperatures and pressures at their cores necessary to trigger the thermonuclear reactions that power ormalstars.
whether brown dwarfs form like stars or like planets. Stars form when a giant cloud of gas
and dust in interstellar space collapses gravitationally, accumulating mass. A disk of orbiting material forms around the young star,
and eventually planets form from the material in that disk. In the early stages of star formation, jets of material are propelled outward from the poles of the disk.
Based on this discovery, e conclude that the formation of brown dwarfs is scaled a-down version of the process that forms larger stars,

These extraordinary rings, produced by an intense flare from a neutron star, provide astronomers a rare chance to determine how far across the Milky way galaxy the star is from Earth.
