Astronomers have discovered a solar system that has managed to exist for billions of years without being exposed to external factors and moves in complete synchronization.
NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) and the European Space Agency’s CHEOPS Telescope were used to explore the solar system.
100 LIGHT YEARS AWAY
This solar system, located in the Milky Way Galaxy, which includes the Earth, is 100 light years away from our planet.
THEY MOVE IN SYNCHRONIZATION
The innermost planet completes three orbits for every two orbits of its nearest neighbor.
Since this situation is the same for the second and third closest planets and the third and fourth closest planets, all of the planets move in a synchronized motion in their orbits.
“NOT LIVABLE DISTANCE”
Researchers estimate that there is no life in the system because none of the planets are within a habitable distance from the system’s sun.
Researchers, who think that the sun called HD 110067, located at the center of the system, may have other planets, stated that the planets discovered so far take a full orbit around the sun between 9 and 54 days.
While researchers estimate that all systems, including the Earth’s solar system, were formed in this synchronized state and that the movements of the planets subsequently changed as a result of external factors such as meteors, they noted that 1 in every 100 systems maintained synchronized motion.
Enric Palle, one of the authors of the research, stated that approximately 50 synchronized solar systems have been discovered, but none of them have as many planets as HD 110067.
The discovery results and details of the research were published in the journal Nature. (AA)
