A Perfectly Synced Solar System: Six Planets Found Orbiting Nearby Star

TL;DR Summary
Astronomers have discovered a star system located 100 light-years away with six planets that orbit in perfect resonance, offering a unique opportunity to study the evolution of these worlds from their formation. Only 1 percent of planetary systems in the Milky Way exhibit this kind of orbital symmetry. The discovery could provide insights into the formation of our own solar system and expand our understanding of conditions on potentially habitable planets. Continuous monitoring of the system will allow astronomers to gather more data and learn about the planets' masses, sizes, compositions, and atmospheres.
