"Dracula's Chivito: A Sandwich-Shaped Star and Its Protoplanetary Disk"
Astronomers have discovered a star about 800 light years away that resembles a sandwich, dubbed "Dracula's Chivito," due to its fang-like features. This young star is surrounded by a protoplanetary disk, making it the largest edge-on disk found to date. Its unique structure and solitary location in space offer a fresh perspective for astronomers studying early star system formation, with potential insights into planet formation. The discovery suggests that there may be more sandwich-shaped stars waiting to be found in similar barren regions of space.
