In this video, we will learn about a fascinating discovery made by the James Webb Space Telescope, the cat’s tail in the Beta Pictoris system. The Beta Pictoris system is a young planetary system that has two exoplanets and a multi-component disk of debris. Webb has detected a new structure in this system, a sharply inclined branch of dust, shaped like a cat’s tail, that extends from the secondary disk. We will explore how Webb made this discovery, what it means for our understanding of planetary systems, and why it is important.
