A new link between water and planet formation
Researchers have found water vapour in the disc around a young star exactly where planets may be forming. Water is a key ingredient for life on Earth, and is also thought to play a significant role in planet formation. Yet, until now, we had never been able to map how water is distributed in a stable, cool disc — the type of disc that offers the most favourable conditions for planets to form around stars. The new findings were made possible thanks to the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), in which the European Southern Observatory (ESO) is a partner.
“I had never imagined that we could capture an image of oceans of water vapour in the same region where a planet is likely forming,” says Stefano Facchini, an astronomer at the University of Milan, Italy, who led the study published today in Nature Astronomy. The observations reveal at least three times as much water as in all of Earth’s oceans in the inner disc of the young Sun-like star HL Tauri, located 450 light-years away from Earth in the constellation Taurus.
“It is truly remarkable that we can not only detect but also capture detailed images and spatially resolve water vapour at a distance of 450 light-years from us ,” adds co-author Leonardo Testi, an astronomer at the University of Bologna, Italy. The ‘spatially resolved’ observations with ALMA allow astronomers to determine the distribution of water in different regions of the disc. “Taking part in such an important discovery in the iconic HL Tauri disc was beyond what I had ever expected for my first research experience in astronomy,” adds Mathieu Vander Donckt from the University of Liège, Belgium, who was a master’s student when he participated in the research.
A significant amount of water was found in the region where a known gap in the HL Tauri disc exists. Ring-shaped gaps are carved out in gas- and dust-rich discs by orbiting young planet-like bodies as they gather up material and grow. “Our recent images reveal a substantial quantity of water vapour at a range of distances from the star that include a gap where a planet could potentially be forming at the present time,” says Facchini. This suggests that this water vapour could affect the chemical composition of planets forming in those regions.
Observing water with a ground-based telescope is no mean feat as the abundant water vapour in Earth’s atmosphere degrades the astronomical signals. ALMA, operated by ESO together with its international partners, is an array of telescopes in the Chilean Atacama Desert at about 5000 metres elevation that was built in a high and dry environment specifically to minimise this degradation, providing exceptional observing conditions. “To date, ALMA is the only facility able to spatially resolve water in a cool planet-forming disc,” says co-author Wouter Vlemmings, a professor at the Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden [1].
“It is truly exciting to directly witness, in a picture, water molecules being released from icy dust particles,” says Elizabeth Humphreys, an astronomer at ESO who also participated in the study. The dust grains that make up a disc are the seeds of planet formation, colliding and clumping into ever larger bodies orbiting the star. Astronomers believe that where it is cold enough for water to freeze onto dust particles, things stick together more efficiently — an ideal spot for planet formation. “Our results show how the presence of water may influence the development of a planetary system, just like it did some 4.5 billion years ago in our own Solar System,” Facchini adds.
With upgrades happening at ALMA and ESO’s Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) coming online within the decade, planet formation and the role water plays in it will become clearer than ever.  In particular METIS, the Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph, will give astronomers unrivalled views of the inner regions of planet-forming discs, where planets like Earth form.
Notes
[1] The new observations used the Band 5 and Band 7 receivers on ALMA. Bands 5 and 7 were European developments, at Chalmers/NOVA (Netherlands Research School for Astronomy) and IRAM (Institut de radioastronomie millimétrique), respectively, with involvement of ESO. Band 5 expanded ALMA into a new frequency range specifically for detecting and imaging water in the local Universe. In this study, the team observed three spectral lines of water across the two receiver frequency ranges to map gas at different temperatures within the disc.

This is the sharpest image ever taken by ALMA — sharper than is routinely achieved in visible light with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. It shows the protoplanetary disc surrounding the young star HL Tauri. These new ALMA observations reveal substructures within the disc that have never been seen before and even show the possible positions of planets forming in the dark patches within the system.

Construction Begins on the NOIRLab Windows on the Universe Center for Astronomy What was once the largest solar observatory in the world is now undergoing a transformation to become a one-of-a-kind facility for sharing the wonders of astronomy with people around the globe. Construction work has started to recast the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope facility at Kitt Peak National Observatory into the NOIRLab Windows on the Universe Center for Astronomy Outreach. Dedicated in 1962 and retired in 2017, the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO), a Program of NSF’s NOIRLab, in southern Arizona was used to make numerous scientific discoveries about the Sun, the Moon, and the planets, including detecting water vapor on the Sun. In 2018, the National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $4.5 million grant to convert the facility into a unique outreach center that will provide the public with new ways to experience the cutting-edge research being carried out at KPNO and NSF’s other astronomy facilities around the globe. “Instead of getting the wrecking ball, the McMath-Pierce is going to be transformed,” said Bill Buckingham, Project Director for Windows on the Universe. “It’s being given a new mission, which is just as important as research, to demonstrate why the public should support astronomy research. I don’t know of any other retired federal telescope being repurposed like this before in the US.” Visitors to the center will explore the wide variety of research carried out at NSF’s astronomy facilities, including KPNO, Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory, the international Gemini Observatory, Vera C. Rubin Observatory, and the Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope — all managed by AURA — as well as the Very Large Array (VLA), Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), South Pole Telescope, IceCube Neutrino Observatory, and Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO). The center will ultimately feature a digital planetarium, interactive exhibits, and a Science On a Sphere display. Part of the center’s mission is to convert data, images, and video from NSF observatories into formats that can be shared and displayed in planetariums and Science On a Sphere exhibits around the world, expanding the center’s reach globally. The center will also preserve three solar telescopes (called heliostats) and a control room from the McMath-Pierce observatory, to give visitors the experience of being at a telescope and participating in research carried out at NSF facilities. “This is a unique and distinctive 10-story structure that extends deep underground, and it was also used by Apollo astronauts to examine the Moon’s surface,” said Buckingham [1]. “There is no other outreach facility with this kind of history and architecture.” Much work is needed to turn the research observatory into a public museum that can host exhibits and also be comfortable, safe, attractive, and functional for guests visiting from around the world. The first step, which has begun, is to identify and safely remove hazardous materials from the building. After that, workers from the W.E. O’Neil Construction Company of Tucson, Arizona, will begin to knock down walls to convert small rooms — once used as offices, workshops, photographic darkrooms, and other science and engineering spaces — into large rooms that will host interactive exhibit galleries and astronomy visualization theaters. Plumbing will be added for public restrooms and water fountains, along with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems. Internet connections will be installed in addition to new lighting, carpeting, and acoustic upgrades. In all, more than 750 square meters (8000 square feet) of space within the former observatory will be modified. This work is expected to take six to eight months to complete. It will then take an additional 10 to 12 months to install the theaters and exhibits. Windows on the Universe is expected to open to the public in 2023. “We are excited to see the transformation of this iconic building into a new educational facility on Kitt Peak,” said Chris Davis, NSF Program Officer for NOIRLab. “Through the Windows on the Universe Center, NSF’s NOIRLab will be better able to share the awesome results of US astronomy facilities across the globe.” Kitt Peak National Observatory and the McMath-Pierce facility are located about 80 kilometers (50 miles) west of Tucson, Arizona, in the Schuk Toak district on Tohono O'odham Nation land. Windows on the Universe and its exhibits are being developed in consultation with educators and leaders of the Tohono O'odham Nation. We are privileged to conduct research on Ioligam Du’ag (Kitt Peak) and acknowledge the Tohono O'odham Nation as the original stewards of these lands. At present, Kitt Peak National Observatory is closed to the public in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the Kitt Peak Visitor Center could reopen on-site nighttime programs to the public in November 2021 and daytime programs could return in spring 2022, if conditions allow. Learn more about Windows on the Universe in a recent Live from NOIRLab online presentation by Bill Buckingham called Opening Your Windows On The Universe. Notes [1] As part of their training to explore the Moon, Apollo astronauts visited KPNO and observed the Moon using the McMath-Pierce Solar Telescope, comparing their observations with photographs of the lunar surface.

Ritmo, movimiento, baile, le damos las gracias a Eugenia por permitirnos compartir su trabajo con una Galería Musical: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvQ22UqrNwA
Y además, un poemazo de Paula Jiménez España:
Después
En el inviero, el viento profería un silbido desde el fondo de su centro callado, llegada a las cortinas de la casa, flameantes como banderas descoloridas, que lo hacían visible y dibujaban sus formas más diversas. Nunca era el mismo o esas telas repetían el impreciso ondular, pero mostrando que de verdad aquello era el presente o que nosotras ya no éramos iguales después de una tormenta. Cuando las gotas hacían tambores con los vientos rotos, el rugir de ese viento, el salpicado del agua sobre los toldos, eran la misma cosa: un solo cuerpo con una fuerza que nadie controlaba y provenía de algún lugar siliente, reposado como el alma de dios. Eso pensábamos: que nunca daña tanto un temporal y que en el fondo algo protege del dolor de las catástrofes, un ojo calmo que descarga el llanto o una serpiente que inocula, junto al veneno, su antídoto secreto.
En el medio de ese frío venía del corazón una pequeña llama que se avivaba cada vez y abierta la ventana dajábamos entrar, para amainarla un viento reposado o una tempestad a la que el fuego resistía heroico. Sabiendo que nada se repite, nada es dos veces, quisimos alargar el sueño compartido, volver hondo el agujero del amor, como si en nada fuera un agujero, sino la esfera de la risa, el alimento, un hilo plateado que ataba nuestras horas, pequeñas grietas donde corrían los besos por la cascada del tiempo detenido.
Como la luz tejieron los sonidos la trama de esa vida cuyo norte variba. Oíamos el coro de los pájaros que, de morir nosotras, continuaría allí, cantando. La música era el orden aleatorio del aire conocido, un movimiento efímero plasmando su huella perdurable solamente una vez.
Y agotamiento fue que las gotas sonaron en la losa acabar el agua así los pensamientos y los músculos llegaron hasta el fin, flores marchitas que siempre sorprendían porque algo más había y algo más, en la cadena infinita donde el sueño no bajaba los párpados, vigilia del corazón empecinado con el galope de una explosión solar o un viento liso despeinando la arena de la playa; era la fuerza al límite, y no como huracásn sino el agotamiento de la vista diluida en la luz o la palabra que disolvió la voz.
Aquellas tardes caían sobre el tilo y el gomero, grisáceo, el peso de sus sombras volvía opacos nuestros corazones de nenas que sabían del ocaso por el rostro rasgado de la abuela o por la pérdida de brillo en los duraznos. Al despuntar la noche lentamente infatigables piernas de criaturas tropezaban en las lajas del camino tomando cicatrices de una vida reciente. Era a la hora en que el día empezaba a despeñarse y todo lo quedo, lo varado, bramaba su callada resistencia a declinar. Estáticas, las hojas se iban diluyendo, liquidando la luz que provenía de la tierra donde nacían constantemente hormigas, orugas y raíces a condición de que murieran siempre.
Y atadas a esas hojas, las ramitas erguidas en el delgado zigzag, los fósiles de piñas ya resacas desparramados en la tierra húmeda, el césped que empezaba a cobrar fuerza lejos de los raigones de los árboles y crecía bordeando los caminos: todos esos detalles hacían a la vida y con la nuestra a la vida de un mundo que no conoceríamos. Prolífico y remoto el devenir, como si fuera un dios de arcilla colorada creaba paso a paso las formas causales, sus grandes manos gozaban moldeando otra apariencia de las mismas cosas.
