DrDawkinstein Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2011/06/110613-space-science-star-water-bullets-kristensen/ Seven hundred and fifty light-years from Earth, a young, sunlike star has been found with jets that blast epic quantities of water into interstellar space, shooting out droplets that move faster than a speeding bullet. The discovery suggests that protostars may be seeding the universe with water. These stellar embryos shoot jets of material from their north and south poles as their growth is fed by infalling dust that circles the bodies in vast disks. Pretty cool whenever we discover new ways that the Universe works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
