James Webb Discovered Mysterious Planet-Like Objects That Float in Pairs in Space

In this episode, we explore the discovery of planet-like objects in a distant nebula that are not orbiting any star, but are floating in pairs. We learn about their characteristics, how they were detected by the James Webb Space Telescope, and how they could have formed. We also see a stunning image of the Orion Nebula, where they were found. This discovery is important and interesting because it challenges our understanding of star and planet formation, and reveals new possibilities for the diversity and evolution of planetary systems.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard something "challenges our understanding of star and planet formation, " I'd keep my damn mouth shut and get my kids on this gravy train.

It's peculiar to call them "Jupiter mass", because brown dwarves start at a few times the mass of Jupiter and average tens of Jupiter masses. Unlike Jupiter, they actually fuse their deuterium content, but not regular hydrogen.

This is one of the coolest astronomy bits of news I’ve heard in a while. I’m so used to thinking planets are always paired with a star. To think that they are out in space floating in pairs is a really interesting event.

Hard to believe they could of stayed together if ejected from another star system.

I wonder if this could be a case of a rogue planet passing through a solar system close enough to another gas giant to gravitationally capture it, and flinging both out of the system as a binary. It’ll be interesting when we finally get independent spectra from multiple pairs to see if they are similar. If they aren’t, this would indicate a unique origin for each member of the pair. This would also indicate that planets, disrupting, solar systems is far more common than we thought.

I too was ejected from my original star system by gravitational interactions

[deanhotter]

I always figured there had to be stars that didn't become full on stars. Like the runts of the litter in the star forming nebulas

There is so much unknown in the universe. Just love it when 'experts' come up with a physics/maths based theory, believing that this is how it is. The universe then says, WRONG...how about postulating a different theory, perhaps one that actually represents my reality.

[Murderface]

One thing for certain, you don't want a planet-sized object passing anywhere close to Earth. It doesn't have to collide, it just has to pass by and that will be enough to end the world permanently.

If any of these jumbos have moons then this does pose some interesting new possibilities, say for life outside of conventional star systems.

[percyjones]

The more this telescope finds the more we realize that we don’t know ishhhh

[jayworldjs]

This would be a great explanation of our sun being part of a binary star system. The other star, being a brown dwarf. It's fitting because our sun is also G-type Yellow Dwarf star.

[Reelunique]

If they produce heat like a star this gives us more options of possibly finding life on a nearby orbiting moon.

[davidjohann]

please don't forget ESA and CSA. It's always called NASAs JWST

[josephtpg]

A, brown dwarf system passed through our solar system long ago. Also there are wandering stars.

[EllyTaliesinBingle]

This is great but we already knew rogue planets were out there ❤

[observedReality]

Planet orbits are determined by the cymatic frequency and modulation of the system. If the frequency changes, the orbits change. In two ways, these rouges are produced. Firstly, planet ejection from a host star where one of two possible trigger criteria are met. One being gravitational instability of orbit by nearby objects, the other, cymatic reordering of a systems bodies. A cymatic system with low amplitude will not induce a star. Without sufficient power/amplitude to attract the necessary stellar material we are left with Jupiter masses.

[ChampCampMMA]

The scariest objects are rogue planets/stars...the odds of getting canceled by one is astronomical...but it's still scary as hell...😬👍💯

[Juan-llsf]

When I said that Jupiter is the Sun's binary, I was close to the evidence found with James Webb telescope. Thanks.

[christadauria]

It’s very interested about the planetary exploration beyond our Solar System within our Milky Way Galaxy.
