In a cosmic first, astronomers have spotted the earliest signs of rocky planet formation around a young star. The discovery offers a rare vision of how Earth-like worlds may begin.

Using the European Southern Observatory’s accurately named Very Large Telescope and working with researchers internationally, the scientists quickly found signs of a past double detonation.

Using the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope in Chile, scientists studied the planet's atmosphere from 520 light-years away.

Larry Denneau, a member of the ATLAS team, reviewed and submitted the discovery observations from the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope in Chile shortly after it was observed.

That’s why NGC 253 is such a perfect target,” Enrico Congiu, an astronomer at the European Southern Observatory in Chile and lead author of the study, tells Reuters.
