Planets everywhere, even where least expected
The drawing below shows an image taken by the NASA Spitzer telescope. In the center appears a dead star, a pulsar, surrounded by 'trash'. Pulsar is called 4U 0142+61 and was a great star until 100,000 years ago. Then it exploded as a supernova. This caused the arrest of a pulsar and the proliferation of material in the universe. However, some fragments remained around the pulsar as a disc. Precisely, this album resembles those formed around young stars, and in them it is believed that planets are formed.
From the images collected by the Spitzer telescope, astronomers have concluded that it is possible to create planets around the bracelets. However, this is not the first time they say it, as in 1992 they suggested the same thing when they saw planets around the press PSR B1257+12.
