Hubble Images Three Debris Disks Around G-type Stars

A team using the Hubble Space Telescope has imaged circumstellar disk structures (CDSs) around three stars similar to our Sun. The stars are all G-type solar analogs, and the disks themselves share similarities with our Solar System's own Kuiper Belt. Studying these CDSs will help us better understand their ring-like structure, and the formation of solar systems. The team behind the study was led by Glenn Schneider of the Seward Observatory at the University of Arizona. They used the Hubble's Sp...
