Scientist have captured the spectacular moment a moon is born in what is believed to be a world-first.
A picture from the ALMA Observatory in Chile shows a red disk of dust surrounding a planet some 370 light years away.
The circle of gas and dust, known as circumplanetary disk, is of an identical structure to that believed to have given birth to Jupiter’s moons.
The image from space came about as scientists used an array of radio telescopes to observe the PDS 70 c planet, a still-forming gas giant orbiting the PDS 70 star.
“It’s quite possible there might be planet-size moons in formation around it,” study leader Andrea Isella of Rice University says in a statement .

“Planets form from disks of gas and dust around newly forming stars, and if a planet is large enough, it can form its own disk as it gathers material in its orbit around the star.

PDS 70 is a dwarf star three-quarters the mass of the sun and which was first revealed through visible light images last month.
Both of its planets are between 5-10 times the size of Jupiter.
