 In our segment on Nearby Stars, we covered the protoplanet Formal Hout B around the star Formal Hout. Turns out that that planet has disappeared. Astronomers are looking for a plausible explanation. One interpretation is that rather than being a full-size planetary object, which was first photographed in 2004, it could instead be a vast, expanding cloud of dust produced in a collision between two large bodies orbiting the star. If confirmed, this will become a blueprint for how planets destroy each other. Others analyze all available archive Hubble data on Formal Hout B and concluded that the planet-size object never existed in the first place. This diagram simulates an expanding and fading cloud instead of a planet. We should know more when the new James Webb Space Telescope is available for deeper infrared examination of the Formal Hout disc.
