Bibiana Prinoth | They saw an additional IR flux consistent with a 1000-K body. This body is consistent with the leftovers from a planetary collision! Long story short, they got to look at this system with # JWST with # MIRI with a little problem. A bit of extra flux (actually a lot) from a background nebula. After some tuning.. they got a clean spectrum, but not really a left-over body so far… but also no dust? So it may be that the collision happened further out? More work is needed. # exoplanets5
