The Fomalhaut system is nearby in astronomical terms, and it's also one of the brightest stars in the night sky. That means astronomers have studied it intensely over the years. Now that we have the ...

Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have made the highest resolution image to date, revealing new insights into the unusual and mysterious architecture of the ...

The nearby star system Fomalhaut — of special interest for its unusual exoplanet and dusty debris disk — has been discovered to be not just a double star, as astronomers had thought, but one of the ...

The bright star Fomalhaut stands prominently in the south late tonight, rising around 8:30 P.M. local daylight time. At magnitude 1.2, it outshines all other stars in this region. Fomalhaut is also ...

As fall deepens in the Northern Hemisphere, a single point of light emerges low on the southeastern horizon. That star is Fomalhaut, one of the sky’s most uniquely positioned and historically revered ...

This artistic impression shows the collision of two planetesimals in the young, evolving planetary system of Fomalhaut. NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has captured the dramatic aftermath of two violent ...

Astronomers used the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope to image the warm dust around a nearby young star, Fomalhaut, in order to study the first asteroid belt ever seen outside of our Solar ...

This artist’s concept shows the sequence of events leading up to the creation of dust cloud cs2 around the star Fomalhaut. In Panel 1, the star Fomalhaut appears in the top left corner. Two white dots ...

Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope to capture images of the fomalhaut star and potential evidence of hidden planets. Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope to observe the first ...

This composite Hubble Space Telescope image shows the debris ring and dust clouds cs1 and cs2 around the star Fomalhaut. For comparison, dust cloud cs1, imaged in 2012, is pictured with dust cloud cs2 ...
