A moth like substance in space???

Run Away! A giant moth with a 22 billion mile wingspan is in space and is heading for Earth! Tricked You!!! Actually, the moth shaped figure really does have a 22 billion mile wingspan, but, the figure is not a living thing. In reality, it is a giant mound of floating dust surronding a young star, with the photo courtesy of the Hubble Space Telescope. The mound of dust is called a dust disk. Typically, dust disks are flat pancake like structures where planets can form. Of course, the star it surrounds is 100 light years away. The star is called HD 61005. No one actually knows if there are any planets forming, much less if the conditions are right. No one, not even the astronomers, knows whether or not the shape of the dust disk will make a difference with making a planet.
