Star and planet formation has largely been considered separate, sequential processes. But in a new study, scientists at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) have modeled a different scenario where planets start developing early--during the final stages of stellar formation--rather than after this phase ends, as previously assumed. The research is published in the journal Nature Communications.
