The planet, 395 light-years from Earth, is so young that its building blocks of gas and dust are still coming together. “It is like looking at our own past,” an astronomer and co-author of the study said. The suspected planet is shrouded by the matter that is making it, meaning further telescopic observations are needed to confirm its existence. But presuming it isn’t just rocky debris masquerading as a planet, scientists can use it to better understand how worlds are made. “House of the Dragon” is set nearly 200 years before “Game of Thrones.” HBO 9.

Scientists have known that sponges can regulate their water flow with a many-minutes-long body contraction, a kind of sneeze. But now, researchers have found that sneezing is a form of self-cleaning, releasing waste particles in mucus. Video of the sneezing sponges has shown clumps of mucus quickly gobbled up by other ocean creatures. Studying this mucus could improve scientists’ understanding of how microbes, and possibly disease, are transmitted in reef ecosystems. Have a symbiotic evening.
