    *Earliest formation of a solar system discovered

    We have seen many, many examples of solar systems being formed, this is by no means “for the first time”. It just happens to be the earliest. But wishing astronomy news headlines to not be click-bait is like wishing for snow in the Sahara.

      Yeah, what a terrible headline. Makes it sound like an event that happened that scientists saw, rather than an ongoing process that’s been happening for millions(?) of years and will continue long past the end of humanity.
