"JWST Uncovers Surprising Second Disk Around Young Star Beta Pictoris"

The James Webb Space Telescope has revealed a surprising second disk around the young star Beta Pictoris, which is different in temperature and composition from the previously known disk. The new structure, dubbed the "Cat's Tail," presents a mystery to scientists, who speculate that it may have been formed by a collision event within the disk. These findings highlight the potential for new discoveries even in well-studied celestial objects and call for further research to understand these unexpected features.
